Day of the Dead Honors

November first, day of the dead Full of traditions, honoring the fallen We light a red candle at sunset Lay a table of food for the deceased Eat sugar skulls, signifying bringing dead to life within ourselves Masks and signs are paraded in a festival’s procession Celebrating the cycle of life and death November first, day of the dead

Can I take a pass on the 'sugar skulls?' After Halloween night, I'm all sugared out... Thanks, in advance. ~ gw
