Pouring my heart out and wishing a Happy Birthday to my daddy who's snug safely in my heart, and to who I dedicate this poem around All Hallows' Eve when we remember our dearly departed ones.
Fear and Celebrating, both healthy traditions observed at Samhain. Happy Halloween, my friends.
Words are all we have. Speak uplifting words.

Started out trying to write a Shakespearean sonnet, but ended up with a string of Clerihews that sounded like Sonnets. Oh my! Read to see what happened next. Hint: good life lesson.
Today I offer you a poem and lovely information for your enjoyment, confident that you too are a lunatic like me. My answer's inside. What's yours?
