A full moon rises

On Halloween this year

But the kids of Rhode Island

Are to be home when it appears

No, this isn’t a trick

But a suggestion from the state

“If you’re out after dark

You’re out much too late!”

So, set your alarm clocks

Enjoy a spooky brunch

Be dressed in costume

No later than lunch

And heed these words,

“You must be home by dusk!”
