Child, woman, lover, mother, (goddess)! you guided me through years of doubt, protected me from sorrow nursed me thru illness. When I was cold you opened your arms and held me to your breast. When I was sad you spoke much wisdom and laughter entered our home. I've thought about this through the years, wondering who you really were, who could so easily move the parts of the me I tried to keep hidden from the rest, who could change my moods, who re-directed my desires and brought me a world filled with wonder and love. I suppose its quite possible to exist not believing the gods guide and love us. I suppose its quite possible to believe we do it all ourselves. Had I never known you perhaps I may have concluded I was the one who steered my ship and made it all happen. Now I've seen the goddess in you I can't believe that all along you thought you were just a man's wife! |

Lovely poem as a dedication. I do not personally believe in gods and goddessses - I believe in God. But your poem is bright and cheery and honours someone in your life -perhaps a mother. Very nice poem. Sheri Adams Jesus lives in my heart! He can in yours too!!! |
