I have written a series of Halloween Poems over the years and plan to release a couple over the next several weeks leading up to Halloween. This first one is in the Diamante form. I hope you enjoy it, and yes, there is a little bit of Poe in me.

Dear Andrea, thank you my friend. It was always my favorite holiday also and I think Poe had a lot to do with that. - Blessing Andrea, Daniel

This is a great Halloween poem in the diamanté form Daniel. Brilliant choice of very effective words that gets you into the spirit (excusing the pun!)of things. Love the alliteration line in particular. Many fans of Poe will enjoy this my friend. Look forward to reading more :):)
