my darling boy
soft brown, delicate grey,
pure white
you are walking so lightly
through the liminal
a darkness
has followed us home
uninvited
at night
you curl in my lap
I count your breaths
your sister watches
cautiously
morning comes
and the bright day
offers grace
blossoms open their hearts
chickadees dart and flit
the black squirrel dashes
your emerald green eyes
show me infinite worlds
and during each precious moment
you are with me
anything seems possible
Music pairing: The Lost Words Blessing from Spell Songs, 2023
May these words bring truth and healing
through open hands and hearts. And then,
let it flow back into our Mother Earth
for the love of all her beings.
