Day of the Dead (tankas)* by L.Gomes 💫 #poem #DayoftheDead #ThriveTogether #WritingCommunity @CoffeeandaChat1 #Halloween

clear circular sphere

fore tells a full moon rising

all hollows eve nears

living await Los Muertos

family gone brought to life~

candles burning bright

photos ‘n Items cherished

placed upon their graves

nights joy where death has no role

Celebrating memories
