~

Where once was laughter
now is silence,

the curtain falls

Hurt not a
Living being
In my
Name.

I
Worship.  
Yet,  
Am a man of

Distance. Admire
From
Afar.

Ground made Mountain
Great.

Woman made man
Man.
  
Love;  
Thus became
God.

I am the love
Of
Everything.

Distance makes
Star
Star.

Always

~

My heart forever blooms
within the fragrance*
of your rose petal smile
~
As I wander in your beauty,
where love surrenders
to each glorious sunrise
and butterflies dance
among the cool shade
caressing the ground,
~
I know this is where
I want to be ~
*always

The August Moon saw the rise of a phoenix from the ashes,
In the huts of poverty was she born,
An arrow of peace,
The changing touch of a stranger

She, the one with an old soul
She, the one with joy
She, the one with a vibrant smile
She, the one with a heart of gold
She, the one with selfless love

Born and bred with the tenacity of a lioness, courage did she ooze with her every day stride
A delicate orchid, with the raw beauty of a black rose
A gift amongst the blessed

She, a pillar of strength
She, a beacon of hope
She, a wild heart
She, a rebellious soul
She, a free spirit
She, a phenomenal woman

Floundered the earth for her offspring did she,
Gave wholeheartedly,
Loved wholeheartedly,
Lived fully did she.
Still now, she molds from her final resting place a queen and king

She, my mother.*

**Happy Birthday Mom!!!
