the little green orchard

[kangeiko]

If, like me, you're really jazzed about Samhain / Halloween, have a read of eldritchhobbit's coundown of scary poems. Today, we have The Little Green Orchard by Walter de la Mare, which basically nails all the terrifying aspects of the orchard mythologies that keep me awake at night.

Hey, thanks for the shout-out! It's great to share with someone else who's in the same mood for seasonal celebration. :)

No problem - it's good to find someone else as excited as I am! (I'm starting to be greeted by wary looks when I bound into work/class looking happy and slightly wind-blown. Methinks autumn!joy looks supiciously like just-got-laid!joy...)
