Over on booklikes.com we’re running a sort of adveent calendar game that involves twenty-four holiday celebrations over the next two months.

Each holiday gets its own door on the calendar.

The first door is Dia de Los Muertos.

I picked the task to:

Compose a limerick or short poem in honor of a favorite book character.

It’s the Day of The Dead so I thought it would be ok to do something a little more mournful so I woke my inner fan-boy and attempted a lament.
