A Spooky Spectacle

The night before the last night, I caught a glance in plain sight –
The live child o’ the Phantom wild – playing in the full moon night!
Playing on its mother’s lap, giggling with all its glamour,
With a joyous glee, delightedly, frolicking with clamour!
Heard its mom’s cheeky chuckle, as she held it in the air, taut,
Checking how swift and spry was the ghostling she begot.
What a haunting laughter! At lightning speed their sound runs,
Their screams are so shrill and sharp, they'd saw through woods at once!
She punches it, twists its ears and does what not to the kid –
Out of love, she gives it a blow, in the air it hangs morbid.
She calls it, "Come here, my filthy-faced skinny little ghoul –
Turn around and show me your smiley face like the barn owl!"
My muddled monkey, cuddled gulpy, an ugly impish beauty,
From a dingy forest, a stinky civet, my nitwit cutie!
O my rain of hot summer days, you sunlit sleet and ice –
You're as sweet as the mortar-ground and candied liquorice!
You're the spice – with gloom and joy – to season my life you're born;
Soaring high, in moonlit sky, riding the surreal unicorn!
O my little nincompoop, with a tummy stuffed with flour;
O my cry-kid, a toothless jewel, dare cry a second hour –"
The instant when she slapped it, abruptly, with a mud splash,
The spectre? The spooky semblance? Evanesced all in a flash!
