Candy Corn

October's end--it's Halloween!
Time for tricks and treats again.
I've got something up my sleeve--
You be Adam, I'll be Eve.
Costumes? They won't cost a cent.
I'll bet that they don't even rent
those itchy little leaves of fig,
and I don't want to wear a twig!
Back to nature, back to Eden!
(Cheaper than a trip to Sweden.)
