MANY TIMES MORE THAN TWICE
MANY times more than twice have I seen
the ghosts of family, friends and then
Some whose faces that I did not know
Quaintly, with ethereal elegance they are
silky touch, feather breath, and opal eye
Outside of the tick-tock of father time
It is most inappropriate to ask of them
to state their business or intended pleasure
extend your politeness over scorn I say

Thank you so much for your kind words. I have deep respect for the visitations I have at times. I have recently learned to tell them to speak to me and not through me. I never ask for them but they come, unannounced and eager to give me their messages. I say resolve your issues while alive so you may pass along to the next life in peace.
thank you
