Trick Or Treat

The darkness of All Hallow's Eve
Ring out this night of soulful bells
In-between worlds of dark and light
Celtic, priestly, celebrations
Kindred spirits fear mournful ghosts

Old church cemetery, pitchfork straw
Ritual cakes of christened folks

Tended fires and saintly relics
Readiness for rural winter
English Russet apple bobbing
All souls gathered around the flames
Turnip lanterns with candle-wax
