Samhain

Listen to poem:
Thinner the veil, Older the year. Between the worlds Shadows appear,   Straddling the times. We feel the past Stamped on our brows. Nothing will last.   Fields are now bare, Soon comes the cold. Kindle the flame That we may hold   Space for a while, Honor the dead, Thank for the harvest, Offer the bread. October 30, 2016
