Samhain, which is pronounced sow-en because Irish phonetics do not get along with English ones. It was the Celtic New Year, but also similar to the Mexican day of the dead. It didn't start until evening, because the Celts considered sunset to be the start of the day, so it was the night of October 31 and the day of November 1. It became All Hallow's Evening under the Christians, Hallows meaning spirits; this eventually was shortened to Halloween.

Make up a poem about 9/11 don’t copy from internet

harina [27]

I really did try I take grade 10 poetry

Tuesday September 11th
Something struck very unpleasant
People died, so many cried
Saying it’s not a tragedy, you must’ve lied

As the Towers were falling to the ground
A sense of happiness will never be found
People ran some fell on there knees
As they watched in the hot breeze.

Mother lost daughters fathers lost there sons
No going back in time what’s done is done
From this day forward we look at this day
What happened will never ever be okay
