"Halloween"

by 

Katherine Chanzy

​

Today I lit a candle and placed  by my uncle's picture

in my house with bread

I will pray today for his rest

I will  tell his adventures to my siblings

We will laugh about his old jokes never forgotten

At midnight when the moon is high in the sky

A door will open for him to come and sit with us for awhile

We will enjoy that great night known as Halloween!
