Costuming Thoughts

Pixie, kobold, elf, and sprite,
All are on their rounds tonight;
In the wan moon's silver ray,
Thrives their helter-skelter play.

And long-leggedy beasties
And things that go bump in the night,
Good Lord, deliver us!

Of soft and golden hue
Pierce through the future’s veil and show
What fate now holds for you.
