for spirits of the forest
are stalking me
visiting with curious hope
like ghosts from the past
talking to me as kin
as familiars wooing...

All Hallows Eve regardless
Not Easter or birthdays
Tenacity of critters
Got me swirling in a haze

They get into the bathtub
The sink or in the car

Weaving a web, light
Falling in shafts of weightless
Ingenuity
Laughing like stardust
Reflecting silent moments
