*written December 29th, 2001 for Ruka Sage
my sweet beautiful girl
my life my flesh my blood
and i brought you into this world – so sudden
feeling like a mother done wrong
if i could give you my heart i would
for mine is full from loving you and could be passed on
I have no more need
may i give you my eyes
now that i have seen you i know beauty
I have no more need
waning strength without your warm body tucked safe in my womb
child of love
beautiful beautiful creature beyond anything or anyone i have ever known
with your soft existence
energy of the fairie folk
my little sprite
my little everything
I call you mine
mine to love
mine to protect
mine to surrender for but never to give up on
will there be a temple to take me in
to hold me
so I may hold this child
the one I call mine
little child
breathe in my vitality
take all i have
I shall create more
my gift
Ruach Sapphira
you will have the heart of a lion
I will bow to this heart
I will beat for this heart
this heart that will carry you
as far as it possibly can
you will have the sight of a celestial being
I will guide you until you are on your own path
and someday i imagine you shall guide me
perhaps to the place of wisdom
that will become known only from this life together
