LETTER TO LUNABELLA


New little Old Soul,
you with the full moon
shining in your face,
filled with
the most beautiful peace,
the song of the ancients
is singing through your blood.
The wisdom of past lifetimes
is reflected in your eyes,
and I see you recognize
me, soul to soul,
from another time, another place
as we greet each other
newly,
face to face.

A calm, inner Knowing
is within you.
May you keep that peaceful heart-song
 as you journey.
I bless you with trees and rivers,
and the vast, forever sea.
May their waves sing to you
as they have always sung to me.

May your eyes always find the radiant beauty
of Mother Earth.
May you always know
the depths of your self-worth.

As you start your journey,
I am ending mine,
the days sifting past
in filtered sunlight and star-shine.
I pass to you the gift I have
for Wonder,
a magic spell I hope you will fall under,
earth's beauteous gifts
all yours to  joyously plunder.

  1. Ah! SO beautiful: "I bless you with trees and rivers,
    and the vast, forever sea." To have that and self-worth and all your wishes will make her life joyful and full. Oh, Sherry, the narrator in this poem is much older than you who can share and nurture the the wonder rather than give it away. I love the moon here and the meeting of old souls.
