A poem for Halloween

[The Straight Story]

Not sure if it is 'scary' or not, but I wrote it years ago on a Halloween night.

Cheers to all! And a Happy Halloween!

2. Thank you, just added a newer one - spirit of the woods

may need to refresh to see it. I wrote it for the wife as she has told me many times how much her hiking there was like a church to her.

Thanks again for the kind words. I have not written in nearly six years, I hope to write more again soon and posts like yours truly encourage me to sit down and try once more.

Now, do something nice for both of us, and look at my pic thread!

You won't be sorry.......

4. I checked it out! Awesome photos.

You take em yourself? I am jealous, cold and rainy here in Ohio.

Someday soon I hope to move back that way. I miss the California Desert I once called home.

5. I took them myself, with my Nikon D50...........

I love love love my digital camera!

Never again will I shoot film!

And I loved your poem for your wife.......that second one you mentioned...

You have a hell of a talent! Keep 'em coming, OK?

Don't be jealous....Ohio has beautiful places too......

I know...I visited there in August! Gorgeous scenery out in the country...
