Vampires of The Night

A Poem by Fran Marie

'Twas the night before bloodfest
when Drac and I woke up from our nap
'twas time to dress and don our best
and look around town for some warm blood to lap

We celebrate slightly different than most
as our merriment comes from dark ally streets
drinking blood with cheers is our holiday toast
we dine on warm bloody neck meat

Oh, no Christmas trees decorated in red
nor frosty snowmen in front on the lawn
we party down with our friends, the living dead
from midnight 'til the wee crack of dawn

Snownflakes may glisten ever so white
but we shall blemish it in crimson stain
for we are vampires of the night
'tis tradition from whence we came

Your vampires are truly alive in this poem….the imagery is so clear and appropriate…. Blood, meat, dark alley streets…..and different celebratory moods….so Drac and you are blood thirsty heading to the Blood Fest….have fun!

I guess Dave Brown & Myself better beware becuz Fran Marie just stepped up the Halloween merry-go-round with a fresh fanning spray of blood & body parts. I swear I'm gored out, but the sneaky sly intensity of your poem tempts me to see if I can go there one more time "heh! heh! heh!" Have a fun Halloween weekend! (((HUGS)))
