We are not blood, but blood we have become. Not by way of rituals arcane, but common trials on common trails we've run. Spirit calls us both; we must stay sane to aid our brothers, sisters on their way. We may be relatives in law, by name; we grow in kinship, stronger every day the journey's shared. I'll tend the gentle flame which lights your path, and shows me paths of peace unseen, untrod by my unsteady feet. And as you offer souls their pain's release, you channel Spirit, make relief complete. My spouse, your sister, made the crossroads where our travels could merge close enough to share.
To Tammy, my sister-in-law and sister in arms. Go as a channel of The Peace. 2-26-2011 JMF
