Dark Door

Oct 31, 2011 by Naomi.

Yes it is Hallow en and eerie spirits are about. My door is dark, I have no porch light anyway, and my lights are out so as not to lure ghosts and goblins up my sidewalk. They began with their sacks at six pm, no where near dark although the sun had set, and still more spooks, some looking suspiciously grown up, are coming at 8:40 in cars and vans because Abbot street has sidewalks on both sides. No stumbling on rough ground.  Anyway I did not have the patience nor the where with all to play the witches game so I turned all lights off and enjoyed the dark from my sun room, cozily bundled in my blue robe and red slippers. A bright crescent moon smiled down in the clearness of the night showing black dancing leaves brushing the windows. And many stars are shining as well. Tom called and we talked for quite a while about the records he found of my dad’s life in Austria. He is enjoying finding his grandfather’s history. He has the history of my mother’s side back to the civil war verified by a newspaper clipping. I am enjoying the results of his efforts also. I wish you Happy Spirits!
