Summoning

I summon thee

Not as the veil thins

Or ghouls descend

Beneath a witching sky


I summon thee

Not as spirits soar

Or blue moons rise

On wings of lilting wind


I summon thee

In ordinary times

With ordinary prayers

On remnants of songs

Under Carolina blue skies

Filled with phantom rumbling laughter

You live

  1. That first stanza sets the scene for a dark moony Halloween, but the witching sky pales beside memories of life and laughter..I really like this, and relate to its cloudy autumn mood. Thanks so much for joining us at the 55.

  2. October's ending often brings up thoughts of dark summoning. I so love this summons life and light.
