Echoes of Enough
Daughter mine,
you will be the last
to whom I will say goodbye.
Listening to you read
of the extravagance of love
reminds me of the river red
And all things unsaid.
To life, to life, to life!!
Ever broken open
My heart shall be
your resting place
and in his face we love
May you ever see
heart of my heart's beating
and hear the echo of
Love and only love
as you listen to the beat
of his heart in time.
Hear how I have called for you.
Know now how I cradled you.
See now truth and its sword.
Turn, turn, turn. Back
from the line of division
and farther on from here.
In all the debris to come, I pray
only for you to see, see clearly
and make this, your great return.
Daughters, mothers, sisters, friends—
She calls through time to you,
holding sacred oil
For eternity, love
poured out upon you
lavishly.
It is finished now.
