On the road to the Black Forest in Germany people seem to be celebrating Halloween all year round. They had their hedges and bushes trimmed with fun faces of ghosts and goblins. It could be very scary for little kids trick or treating on Halloween night!

Strange spectors say, “Boo!”

Frank Tassone asked us to write our Haikai poem today based on the tradition of Halloween. Last summer we saw these odd faces as we traveled through the Black Forest of Germany. I decided to write my poem about them.
LOL!

I like your haiku, and the bushes are delightful! But yes, they could be scary for little kids.

Your wonderful photo reminds me of some local lawn work… frightening in a different way.
Kind of like a thrift store lost it’s cookies! Every time I drive by I try and figure out a theme… and fail.
