All Souls Day

Nov two
        today 

It’s All
     Soul’s Day

Time to
          Visit

Graves of
         Loved Ones

Rain Go
         Away

I’ll light
      Candles

Lay nice
      Flowers

Offer
     Prayers


Show deep
      Respect

Send my
      Great love

Deep from
       My heart
     
To those
      Angels

Guarding
       Me near

Watching
       Afar

Len, this is a beautiful footle reminding us to remember those we love who are no longer with us! It has a wonderful feeling of quiet reverence. I especially loved "rain go away" taking our sorrow so we can "light candles" of remembrance. So enjoyed this poem. Thank you for sharing it!! Sending you all the blessings of All Souls Day dear friend!
