Tis Upon All Souls Day.🍂
🕯️On the 2nd day of November let us remember our loved ones who no longer walk beside us in this lifetime.
All Souls Day is a day they come home. A day our ancestors return to walk upon the ground that they once called home.
We shall honour them today.
🕯️As we listen
So we learn
Why, all the wisdom
From days gone by
Dare not
Be forgot
For, our ancestors voices
May still be heard
Their echoes linger
Upon the very ground
That we walk
So as we go
Along our life’s path
We must
Remember them
For, they
Are we
And we are them
đź•ŻIf ye be kind enough to put a little candle upon your window sill tonight. Let its light shine out bright and light up the darkness of the night. Let it guide our beloved old Souls home to us once more.
🍂Some folk lay out an extra plate of food at the dinner table tonight. Or some may offer a wee dram, so a lost one may return to feast and drink one more time. Let’s take a sip and cheer them all as we raise a glass tonight.
