Halloween Masks- Halloweensie Contest

 

                                                            Word Count: 99

                             HALLOWEEN MASKS

 

 

                                    By Ken Major

 

 

“Look what I bought for my Halloween costume for tonight, Mom!”

 

“What is it?” asked Mom.

 

“It’s a nurse’s costume with a special safety mask with skeleton bones. It’s my way of thanking all frontline workers in the pandemic,” said Rachel.

 

“That’s a great idea!” said Mom.

 

“The mask says, EVERYONE PLEASE WEAR A MASK. IT SAVES LIVES!”

 

“I wish everyone took this to heart and did what the health experts are saying,” said Mom.

 

“I think it’s creepy when the president mocks people that wear masks?” said Rachel.

 

“I agree. Let’s all do our part to save lives.”

    I'm starting to think that I struck a unhappy cord with my entry that touches on health and politics. This Halloween is like no other, where many kids didn't even go out. Best to face it head on. At least, that's my take.
