Notes About The Poem

HALLOWEEN

Hallow’s Eve, when spirits return 
And on Styx’s shores, a darkness churns
Lost souls vanish to the veil
Lamenting cries rise up from Hell
Omen hangs high in Stygian sky
Where witches watch with a wicked eye
Eldritch winds whisper a woeful tale
Echoes of death ride on the gale
Night-creatures creep with dreadful bale

This is a frightening scene. I think it covers Halloween pretty well. I enjoy your classic Acrostic.
