I have some friends who don’t visit me much.
They are deer and a raptor and owls and such.
Creatures of all kinds who signal a change,
Beings who escort those leaving this plane.

I call them the Soul Keepers, who protect and defend,
On our mysterious journeys at life’s sudden end.
They hold our spirits in their hearts
and insure we arrive safely in other parts.

Watch for the Soul Keepers, as they are kind,
They come as a comfort for those left behind.
My creature friends visit rarely, and I notice them, usually to protect people I know leaving this life. They are a comfort fir those of us who discover them.
