@@@@@ A bit of a trickster, but more like a treat; with black tuxedo, he always looks neat, but proper he isn’t – he naps in a bowl! He’s learned from the fate of my brother who stole… ;) so he won’t consume, but where will he hide when goblins and ghouls lurk to see what’s inside? @@@@@ Note: "my brother who stole" is a reference to two poems I posted just before this :)

This was really cute. And I don't think he will hide when the goblins and ghouls come around, he looks like a curious fellow to me. Really nicely done my friend.

very cute. I think it's Bobby May who inspired your other poems, right? I finally wrote that one about the brother who stole treats. Just not posted it yet.
