Samhain

by Maple Tree   Oct 28, 2012


Dancing fingers raised in flight,

as harvest moon begins tonight,

gathering at our spirits resting

giving thanks, a dark winters blessing.

Autumn passes, with a single fallen leaf

granting hope, ridding souls of grief,

embracing our rituals, we praise the moon,

bonfires circled, hand in hand, we sing our tune.

    Marvellous! I loved the simplicity of choosing your words. The most beautiful expression is this 'Autumn passes, with a single fallen leaf', I like the word 'single'. Great write.
