What do you suppose a Halloween table to look like? To me a Halloween table is one that kind of gives off a Gothic motif that is a dark Mahogany table maybe with a few tall candlesticks in the middle. Now picture cobwebs hanging from the ceiling and chandelier in the center of the room. There is a sense that one is not alone at this table for its set for two for pewter dishes. Who is expecting whom? Is it for a special trick or treater? At this time of year, one may not know for sure. Happy dining!?

Pooh meets Paddington
Pooh and Paddington went back down the path. Roo was so excited to have his ball back. They ran into the others for they said they couldn't find it, and this was when Roo showed his ball to them. He said another little squirrel found it and was playing with it. "Guess what Mama. I have another little friend now." "That's great, Roo." They all played a short game of catch before they all went their separate ways. Kanga and Roo had to go home for it was time for Roo's nap; the others continued on their mission for Paddington.

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

I love the Gothic motif!
Well-wrought! A Halloween table might be any table where pumpkins are carved!
You created quite the creepy atmosphere. Love the colour you made the table. The suggestion for company, a lot could be entered into the blank. Nicely done, Mark. 🤗❤️
Beautifully written! The imagery of cobwebs, candlelight, and that mysterious table for two leaves just enough to the imagination to give readers a chill.
