Self Unto Self, A Poem of Reclaiming

Emmy, My Love
Are you the darling twin I have longed for all my life?Have I sought myself inside myself,not knowingI am my own true love?
Who were we when we did not know,when fear strangled words,and sorrow dimmed the song?What visions did we seek, together alone?
I lay you down in the heart of the Mother Bear.There, in the soft warm fleshI give you birth.Self unto Self, Emmy, my love.I am.
Walk with me nowin sweet days of innocence.I give you comfort,you give me joy.

Emmy 2
I throw you high into the air.Wheeee!You twirl, laugh free.The words come.
