Darkness lurks beneath the trees
Shadows lean out with gleeful grins
And grasping fingers,
The moon is bright and full tonight
Her distant light cool silver-blue
Sharpening the shadows’ edges
Casting their teeth into focus,
Samhain is here at last
When the veil between worlds thins
And monsters roam the night
When Darkness reigns
And fires bring Light
Into the world
Into the souls
Of all who see.
