(for Janet Merriweather)


©2004 M. Bennett Hooper


Ritual name Nini Deoma

The wind blew high and leaves fell from the trees by the bushel.
It caressed, it cajoled, it laughed, howled and blew harder.
First cold, then warm, then chilling, then calming.
Is it raining says I peering through the opened door.


No Janet said smiling it’s just my son and I who had called earlier upon the ancestors realized immediately that the spirit of her son had joined us in our ritual space.
And I hugged her as she was warmed by his presence.


Ase.
