POETRY – Halloween 2021

 

A Note from Your Editor . . .

Here’s to the High Holy Days! For many of us, it’s more than just a favorite holiday and time of year . . . it’s a much-anticipated and prepared-for celebration of the thinning of the veil between this realm and the next, an opportunity to engage in the danse macabre!

Please join me in giving gratitude to all the poets who have offered these poems for your pleasure! Experience each one as it is placed on the exalted sacrificial altar. Savor each poem and revel in its dark beauty . . .

Trick-or-Treat? Choose wisely . . .

Until next time,

Your humble poetry editor,
Terrie Leigh Relf
