Heed the pixie, elf and sprite
All on their mischievous rounds tonight
Lit by the moon’s silver rays
Likely they’ll find me on this Halloween night
Oh, so fond of their deeds and spells
While I quiver and hide from their helter-skelter ways
Eerie shadows lurk by the door
Even as I try to fall asleep they whisper
No, I said. Get away from my bed. Get out! Get out! Pixie, elf and sprite
