Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. This week’s theme is Halloween, which falls on October 31.
Today’s poem is a Halloween poem about how wandering spirits
might find peace.
I welcome comments on my poems at

Yours,
Nick Gordon
How might a spirit settle in the wind?
After death, how might a soul find peace?
Love lasts long after lips and laughter cease,
Leaving only memories behind.
Out of longings, one might linen spin,
Weaving well the welkin edged with fleece.
Each spirit must from wandering seek release,
Else ever through the weary midnights wend,
Not resting till love's angels dark descend.
