| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 10/25/10 at 02:28 AM My fav word "stronger" - it draws me toward Halloween, a nice underlying tension. Thank you. |

Though I'm no expert in haiku by a long-shot, I've learned that haiku need not be in 5-7-5 or have 17 syllables, and the shorter the better, so, my only suggestion here is that you might have been able to convey this with fewer words.
Well done and thank you for sharing!
