Twas El Dia de Los Muertos
When all through the cemetery
All the souls were stirring
Even Aunt Mary
Marigolds were placed upon the graves with care
In hopes that the ancestors soon would be there
The deceased were waiting for ancestral meals to be fed
While visions of sugar skulls danced in hollow heads!
Meet the Sugar Skull Faery! I bet you never knew this contemplative little faery existed! She is quite solitary and spends a great deal of her time honoring her loved ones! I hope you will consider inviting her into your home!
