an excellent, Eve Of Hallow write
I truly enjoyed reading your peice
I guess I must be grouchy I hate Halloween
hate to see all the occasional decorations
covering homes and lawns, and we can even decorate
for Christmas...... without some one complaining of their rights being violated,
Yet no one complains of ghost, gobbling's
and now zombies........
Love & Peace be with you

I like the way you have given the day more meaning, Kathi. Thank you. I have written several poems about Halloween which are posted here at AD. For some reason, Halloween seems to inspire me to write in a different style. Love and best wishes,

A very positive twist on a very morbid process practiced long ago to try to ward off the death of winter that everyone knew was coming soon. You have turned it into a lovely ritual filled with sacred (certainly not scared) light and life with not even a touch of the coming doom.

I certainly hope you weren't about to be sacrificed, because I was falling in love with the stunningly beautiful image expressed.

...awesome symbolism attached to the gathering evening prior to All Halloween...an intense
activity of both, the human and supernatural...at a time of magic and divination and
divine...staged in poetic words to satisfy...not only the most traditional host of magical
beliefs...the fashion junkie's hand picked special-occasion wear...the candy craving
that hurts the sweet tooth...Ow!...but also the deep meaning...behind dressing up in
frightening costumes...the true picture how Christians celebrate the All Saint's
night...with ghosts-demons-goblins outdone...death defeated...
became the point of All Halloween celebration..
Happy Celebration of both, Kathy!
...the spooky of Halloween night's eve and magic
filled with Light of All Saint's hope.
