#1

On porches sitting

Bright jack-o-lanterns aglow

Welcoming children

#2

Arms raised joyously

Witches greet beloved ancestors

Within their Circle

#3

The bonfire burning

Warms the sacred ancient rite

Celebrates Samhain night

#4

Autumn leaves scatter

Amongst garbed laughing children

Chanting trick-or-treat

#5

Costumed figures run

Bags of candy held proudly

Knocking door to door

#6

Candles on Altar

Flames dancing amongst decor

Representing Samhain

#7

Cinnamon apples

Drizzled with Carmel and nuts

A Samhain delight!

I never was good at Haikus LOL but I feel better already :)
