Halloween Day..Trick or Treat

I still don’t understand why there is a need to celebrate Halloween especially in a majority Christian Society. In fact, the Christians lend a tolerant eye to the celebrations, enjoying the films and traditions of the night. We never take these things seriously enough. Some may say I am too serious but I rather err on the side of man than to risk defying our Lord.

 

Halloween Day Trick Or Treat

How many countries chose to celebrate

A day of Ghost and witches and commemorate

Lives lived and past on to purgatory

Looking beyond the life and death boundary

Our children are encouraged to roam the neighborhood

Wearing white sheets, colored masks and costumes with hood

Every child taught to beg trick or treat

Every door answered may give something sweet to eat

No one giving a thought to the many ills

Dangers and risks for these perilous thrills

And worse is the abandonment of what God ordained

You must not meddle with witchcraft, sorcery or median

Though he had banished the median from the land

Reigning King Saul disguised and begged their lending hand

It was yet another show of him defying the Lord

Calling on Samuel this way was a thing abhorred

Keeping séances to bridge the living with the dead

Or just dressing up pretending our worlds have bonded

Rebels against what the scriptures teach

Trick or treating threatens what the prophets preach’

Religious values should be enforced on our young

Encourage them to evangelize with a Christian tongue

And stop this growing practice now spread into the Caribbean

This pagan celebration they call Halloween
