Samhaintide Poem by Leanne Jarrin
Samhaintide
Rating: ★3.5
The Banshee
Strides into sight
Her shrieking howls
Fill the heart with fright
The Dead and demons
Abroad, this night
Wander the world
A carnal blight
The Witch's Ghost
Dame of the Rite
Astride her broom
In enchanted flight
Calls forth the Fey
Of primal might
To trick and treat
In the pale moonlight
