A week when Falmouth’s Main Street was populated
with delightful figures in celebration of Halloween.
Candy purchased and packaged in individual bags
while wondering if trick or treaters will
actually appear during this scariest of years.
A week when cold rain turned to wet snowflakes,
and prompted the building of the season’s first fire.
And a week when a colorful salad brightened a rainy day,
and a newly discovered recipe for Italian bread conjured
a remembered taste and texture, and became a staple.
