A Pale Green Moon for Halloween

The Moon on the Eve of Halloween appeared pale green as  

Lizards surrounded the smiling Pumpkins with fire-lit eyes...  

The stars scattered like broken strings of Pearls when Angels 

collide with Witches in Black velvet Hats chasing Bats... 

All Saints Knights in shining Armour walk the Fields of 

Golden Cornstalks and Child-like Urchins searching for 

Tricks or Treats with Black Cats prowling with Skeletons...

A very colorful Halloween write; …lizard with fire- lit eyes….angels colliding with witches…how does that turn out! I vote for the angels all the time
Lovely holiday poem Pat… your words just flow together so well!
Best, B

dearest Betty... some day our grandchildren's grandchildren will write poems for Halloween...
will the Moon still be pale green on Halloween?...
Thanks for sharing my version of the tradition.
Now we can settle in with Prayers for Thanksgiving.
May our Holidays bring fruition to our hopes for a safe and healing way to celebrate the New Year. tenderly, Pat

You’re very welcome

I love the imagery in this poem, yes long past this holiday but I’m still traveling back in your catalog, always thrilled with every line and I love this holiday

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Patricia… yes, Halloween can be fun and creative… love to see the Kids dress up like Characters .. one year when my Children were younger.. I dressed up with a “Yoda” over the Head Mask and felt Very Wise. Your Review is Priceless like a Pirate’s Treasure Chest. Love that you spend time cruising my Catalog… I am feeling like a Seed Catalog with Sunflower Seeds. 💕 Pat

The innocence of Halloweens past... We recapture it briefly in our own children. But such times are fleeting. Soon only memories remain. Thank for that brief smile, though. Well written.

Hi Patricia, you do bring Halloween to life in this most creative write. Such wondrous visions fill my mind as I read through your perfect words. Your words sing into the soul. A Halloween song. Have a wonderful Monday. Hugs....Mike.

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Lightsong... your review is like a gorgeous Sunset that brings "Rest" to our weary "Quest". Being "Playful" is like "Swinging on a Star"... you never know where you will "Fall". Wishing you a safe landing with lots of friends and fireside chats. gently, Pat

[lightsong]

Ya gotta get excited when the moon is pale green & witches are chasing bats in black velvet hats! Sorry I did not catch this Halloween grand finale of yours. I needed a couple days off after chasing the Halloween merry-go-round with Dave Brown for a month. But it's great to find this, upon my return, & your spooky antics are word-painted in the most freakish tones of cadaver! (((HUGS)))

dear Margie... I am late to thank you for reading about the green moon for Halloween. Tonight the Eastern Star Venus is shining Bright and I find Comfort knowing that the Heavens are steadfast and we can count on the strength of their fortitude. gently, Pat

dear Gene... I am even a bit Irish on Halloween...
I adore your review as a "Battle"... as we are definitely fighting for Justice... in a time of heavenly prayers. There is a "Star" that shines in the "Right" direction... in Virginia by the Rappahannock River.
Now we can look forward to Thanksgiving and the New Year. fondly, Pat

[Einstein Noodle]

yes! the focus on gratitude for all one may have in this world makes Thanksgiving one of my all time favorite holidays .. have a great one, Pat! (gobble gobble) ;)

[Christy the Poetic Hear..]

This is genius! The scary tale is presented in such a calming tone that I had to read it twice. Well done!

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Christy... I appreciate your Charming review. May your skies be a Blessing as you survive the Holidays. gently, Pat

[ghost]

Agh, beautiful, this filled me with an overwhelming amount of happiness in a way I cannot explain

[Patricia Wedel]

dearest Ghost... you have given my poem "the ultimate complement" and I am beholding. truly, Pat

[Zoe Richardson]

You described a typical night of trick or treaters in all their myriad choices of costumes, as well as the underlying currents of Halloween in stories and songs. I love the visual elements, and the atmosphere. I'm not a fan of Halloween, but your poem is both spooky and innocent. Nicely done!

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Zoe... the Joy of children dressing up as characters is my favorite Theatre. I love the performing arts of Halloween. Thanks for your words and stopping by. gently, Pat
