*with a deep bow of gratitude
                       to
      the Lexpomo community
               from whom
          i learn much and
                have much
                       to
                    learn
may you journey well, dear ones

Sunset fading close of day

We come together here every evening
                  holding hands

Vision drawn by darkling sky
          dimness of all
                    but
             our actions

Stars appear, sacred, mysterious
         transitional time

My parents and all ancestors
          past, present, and future
                  stand with me

We bow in gratitude of the gifted
                    day that’s done
         honoring our dear ones and
                          all of you
              all beings in all worlds

During accessible aura of opening up
                            peace
                            peace
                            peace
