oh, black cats, black cats
neath the old oak tree’s shadows
curious pounce bristles
oh, black cats, black cats
pale moonlight since departed
the morn’s gray light keen
oh, black cats, black cats
ghosts, goblins, and witches too
behold Halloween

A gander at me –
I enjoyed a dedicated career in the insurance industry for over 20 years being rewarded both professionally and personally. Now it’s time for me to follow my dreams by doing things I enjoy…spending time with family, learning, sharing, traveling, writing poetry and encouraging others to pursue their goals.
Animals like crows, owls or black cats are not ominous at all; it is the men’s superstitious mind which is the inauspicious one!
