Samhain poem/prayer

Last year I had found this prayer/blessing/poem,  When I first converted to pagan I used this right before my first spell. I was new and this poem helped to start celebrating Samhain more traditionally.  I used it as more of a prayer/poem than a spell. I had tweeked it last year. This year I hope to composite my own Samhain poem/prayer/spell instead of borrowing from other people's spells and rituals and such and tweeking them.

The Samhain Spell
The following 'spell' is a modern Wiccan composition.
Be unafraid of Shadows dark
And to their whispers
Do Not Hark
Unfriendly words
You do Not hear
No worry, trouble
Loss or Fear
No Shadow falls
Upon your Heart
We Stand Together
Though Apart.
We Stand Together
Ever Winning
All our spells
Together Spinning
For Every End
A New Beginning
Wealthy, Healthy,
Happy, Free
If this your Will
So Mote It Be!
(Maurice of Coventry Greens, 1994)

That was the original. My tweek is more for a solitary practitioner. It is a little bit shorter than the original.  I worded it thus;

Be unafraid of shadows Dark
and to their whispers
Do Not Hark
Unfriendly words
I do not hear
No worry, trouble, loss or Fear
No Shadows fall upon my heart
I stand Strong
Ever Winning
For Every End
A new Beginning
Wealthy, healthy, Happy Free
If this is your will so mote it be!
