                                 ­                    ( there is power in peace )

""

Oh child !

beware !

it is as easy to weave

Chains out of flowers

than iron links

//

Over the  subtle sands

Upon the winds of solitary

Homage to your own visions

Of holiness and loveliness

fly !

••

It is best to not act at all

Until you know EVERY reason

And know completely

The truth from the lie

/:/

Many will claim to love you

::

Claims are made so readily

By the collectors of slaves

Stay free !

Oh YE lovely child

//

The river of life !

Rich and pure and deep

//

The dying rivers !

In these murderous days !

••

The simple meditation

The humble sign

The creation

recapitulated

Breath by breath

Time after time

••

And you are known

As one who knows

As one with true purpose

And strength



Sacred is your fertility

Your reproductive capability

Your ability

To judge exactly

Friend from foe

In modesty and humility

//

Oh child !

Mother of purity that shall surround

All who strive for understanding and grace

//

Facing the big world !

Honestly

With the power of peace

In your heart

Firmly beating

Constantly
