Listen to a new podcast for dia de los muertos (day of the dead). Day of the dead marks the finale of a three day period where the veil between the living and the dead opens and mortals interact with the spirit world.
today we live
a day to celebrate
tonight we sit – with death
offering the departed favorite treats
amidst candles glittering on marigold petal graves
today we mourn
hearts lifted respectfully
tonight we sit – with spirit
offering heartfelt prayers
amidst the fiesta with gunfire sounding in the distant night
