Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. This week’s theme is Halloween, which was celebrated on October 31.
Today’s poem is a Halloween poem about the role of
superstition now and in the past.
I welcome comments on my poems at

Yours,
Nick Gordon
Have witches gone the way of wonders,
Asterisks of yesterday?
Life restores what reason sunders,
Lest we lose our mind for play.
Once we knew that what we knew
Was like a ship upon a sea.
Evil spirits wandered through
Eternity, and what was true
Never tainted what might be.
