for new beginnings

the very first person I loved
was the one brought me from above
inside I lay wrapped in her tenderness
outside I learned by  her sweet caress
I grew in her world of sunshine and rain
adopting her patterns of pleasure of pain
and beyond these years of time and space
I still feel the strength of my mother's face
for if in a sorrow I cry
a gentle voice is heard, her sigh
her travesty my recreating her same
and childhood portrait part of the game
for all suffering must be but illusion
its manifest bearing confusion
so how you've queried, can we release
to make these old habits cease
start with having a hard look inside
at sorrow's possessions, our anger our pride
do diligent pathwork with patience with choice
through ritual majick and deep inner voice
apply this devoutly soon banish your tears
but don't follow mine it takes too many years !!!
