Happy Halloween, Everyone! Ingrid Wilson at Experiments in Fiction is hosting a special Halloween Sonnet Sunday. Here is the link to my sonnet, but be sure to check out all the rest for a spooky poetic treat!
I discovered Fairport Convention and first heard “Tam Lin” when I was in high school. That’s where the Fairy Queen in my poem comes from. My favorite Halloween song sung by the late Sandy Denny:
Yesterday and today: Merril's historical musings 
Thank you for the mention, Merril!
Thank you for the challenge!
Shivers and a wonderful musical selection as well! (K)
Thank you very much, Kerfe!
I enjoy the song and can hear how it played a role in your sonnet. Cheers to a fitting sonnet for the day!
brilliant sonnet, Merril!
Thank you so much, Freya! 😀

Thank you so much, Dale.
