A crow
black's darkest hue,
jet wings aflame with night,
obsidian and ebony,
lit, here.

Its about time those Holloween Jacks come to visit you.
Scared about children --dying so true.
Dark nights are heavier these days-- When Christmas and Holloween brew.
Farther Graves are glowing Grey.
Autumn Leaves have their dark brown Frey.
Barks of trees feels so Rusted.
as Holloween Jacks feel so trusted.
Happy Holloween to you.
When Spirits Howl on their pale white hue.
