For some delight
Some momentary awareness comes
Still treat each guest honorably
And invite them in
Welcome and entertain them all!
As a guide from beyond
He may be clearing you out
Be grateful for whoever comes
Empty of its furniture
The Guest House
Simile
Because each has been sent
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows
Meet them at the door laughing
As an unexpected visitor
Coleman Barks
This being human is a guest house
Rhyme
Metaphor
Who violently sweep your house
Every morning is a new arrival
A joy, a depression, a meanness
the dark thought, the shame, the malice
Jelaluddin Rumi
