SOME SPIRITS

--

Some spirits seem like strangers,

And others feel like kin.

Some turn away unnoticed,

And others step right in.

..

Passing through this portal,

However short our stay..

Every one a shaman,

Each in her own way.

..

Blessings for the taking,

Nectar on the vine.

Bounty at the harvest,

Fragrance to the wine.

..

Some tarry for a lifetime.

Some only stay the night.

Some brush against our shirtsleeves,

And disappear from sight.

..

Each in her own wisdom,

Each in her own time,

Forever part of your life,

Forever part of mine.
