The day is almost here, my friends. We are so close...

I hope you will feel a Halloween-appropriate chill from these atmospheric photos of the catacombs at Kensal Green Cemetery.

to these verses, might I add one more:

Ghosts of fog surround the
gates

wherein forever lies,
comforting, somehow,
in their pristine white.

I do not feel so alone,
wrapped in this
swaddling shroud,

soul-to-soul
with many a gracious spirit.

Aren't these photos stunning? I can't take credit, as my pics of Kensal Green are amateurish at best; I can only look and appreciate!
