dorcha, the lady of the harvest, and letting go [public]
...some momentary awareness comes
As an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows
Who violently sweep your house,
Empty it of its furniture,
Still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
For some new delight...
...be grateful for whoever comes,
Because each has been sent
As a guide from beyond.
