Samhain Night

By Aeowyn Riverwood

The Full Moon shows our path tonight,

Ancient, Nocturnal, Guiding Light;

I step through the wood, agog and adrift,

Losing myself in the spectral mist;

Hear now my call, sung as I roam,

Barefoot I go through the darkened loam;

Come dance with me this Samhain Night,

Round the bonfire we've set alight;

Drink deep and full of the mugwort tea,

And listen for the whispers of the poplar tree;

We'll peer through the veil to the Otherworld,

The Mysteries, for us, will be unfurled.
