They are ghosts who wrap their arms about me.

Gentle touches of reassurance;love.

Lost words full of  never mind  

come to comfort me as my world shifts.

Crisis and chaos, change.

Daylight shifting into darkness.

Ghosts eternal come to show me

how to set my stifled thoughts alight.

The softest hands soothe me,

the wisest words take my restless breath.

The greatest gift is given

and precious ghosts return to rest.
