A Mother's Wish

[Blue Orchid]

I wrote this for my kids, but I've also been using it as a way of offering compassion to my younger parts:

Let me swaddle your heart in a cloud
Wash your face with gentle rain
And wrap your skinned knee in sunlight.

I will brighten your darkness with a flash
And thunder at your enemies
But blow you kisses with the breeze.

I will stand solid beneath you
Enfold you in the womb of earth’s life
That you may be born again and again.

[Oceantide]

Beautiful, ineffable. Thank you for sharing this with us, Blue Orchid, your kids (inside and outside) are fortunate to have you as a mother.

So beautiful BlueOrchid
Thank you for your beautiful words.
As oceantide said, ineffable indeed.
