Joy

For Nirado and every woman who has expanded the circle... (We can take me out of it...)

I see in you what you see in me,
I am your mirror.
I love in you what you love in me,
I am your heart.
I hold you close, you are so dear.
We become closer.
We touch in trembling moments
that reflect the make-believe fantasies
from our youth.
We come again together
to remember...
to awaken...
to swim in the pool of our insights
to bathe in the light of our angels
to step on holy ground
to reach deeper and deeper
to stretch farther and farther
to sit centred in the circle of love.
Thank you for the fire in your eyes.
Thank you for the safety in your arms.
Thanks you for the strength of your presence.
You are mother, daughter, sister, lover, friend.
I don't know how many times
I will be with you
or how many ways you will carry me
through my dreams
into my woman dace.
We are connected in truth.
We have discovered a golden tunnel
to our home
We are finally, finally HOME!

Love, JOY
