The many lessons
That’s she taught me

The first was how
To let her go

The second blessing
She Bestowed me…
Well honestly
I wasn’t listening

(Foolish child)

So that one
I’ll never know

But
The third…

The third one
Struck me
Through my shame
Teaching me how to love
And in turn
The fourth was
How to love myself
All the same

The fifth one
Brought me to my knees
So my Goddess is to whom I pray
