Timshel

I would and always will
give you all of this
unconditionally,
spoken from the heart
in softest breath

Timshel

Your dreams are yours
no need to ask permission
to do so much good so well,
but since you inspired, then inquired,

Timshel

Choice becomes just this
and there is no need to beg,
let alone inquire twice,
as it has already been given
gifted, as it were, by a higher power:

Timshel.

Were you to lay your finger
upon my cheek, then draw it
where you will, speaking naught of
what you wish but allowing me, only, to
read the lines surrounding your eyes,
there would need be one word
uttered…

Timshel

As some of you might know, Timshel is a Hebrew word for the biblical meaning of “Thou mayest” which, put as simply as I understand it, is the ancient meaning for choice.

I loved the way you expressed unconditional acceptance and love.

Thank you all. This poem has led a PiP member to ask that I expound on the same theme in a different venue.

And so, I did!
