a poem for halloween sunday

 
 the poem of hallowe'en lanterns

 beautiful are the forests when the leaves are green;
beautiful are rainbows where a storm has been;
beautiful are lanterns in the night at hallowe'en.

beautiful are lanterns gilding spring's gay shoots;
beautiful are lanterns firing autumn's fruits;
beautiful are lanterns carved from winter's earthy roots.
