~Her Bearded Dragon & Macaw Memories- African Grey ~ (For Reenie)

 

 

From within a single seed, Salvation emerged
and brought color to petals pale.
The dew elixir from within your palms presented
Creatures sustenance in which to sup.

Beauty given another day to Live the Dream
seen outlined in Faith your features captured
as
the Angel who would cause them no harm
for
Mankind proved in most cases to be cruel.

The weak crucified, the voiceless cradled
near Nature's bosom
with everything she could evoke within her power
to protect the vulnerable, make them a victim
no longer~

yet Greed pressured to win over Nature's worth;
blinded people except for the rare few, like you.

You gave back a reason to fly, a reason to speak
in a language once lost amongst poachers.
You listened when words accompanied salted rain,
eyes released from its windows swollen shut

from abuse and or neglect.

Those who danced, dared to raise hands in the air
underneath heavenly showers, shouting your name;
afterwards f
elt a surge of offering from Spirit
into their Hearts.

They were assured alliance after looking
into your eyes and saw Divinity's blessing in pupils.

Hardships handed out without remorse did not deter
the mission woven meticulously within your veins.

Many Creatures fell, succumbed to society's slavery 
Man assumed would bank superiority however,
they've been proven wrong by an Empowered woman
with wings.

                       


Our Love Letter to you on parchment~ Cherche -d -ame...
                       and a handful of fresh daisies too~


                
("For now they are memories to be looked back upon-
                [memories of the heart], and the heart does not forget."

    dear sunshine,

    again you have captured the essence of a radiant soul and painted a rainbow canvas of heartfelt blessings ...
    you have the gift of seeing the divine in all, and never hesitate to bring out the hidden treasures burried in our hearts that we sometimes keep in the shadow ... your touch is sacred and it spreads light and energy upon our souls ...

    may you always be protected and blessed,
    maa

    can I return when I can stop smearing teardrops all over the screen?You lovable, lovable wench [in this case wench is not meant in the usual sense]I even had hubby read it his response? "uhuh----she doesn't have to live with you"You really touched and humbled me, and including my babies means the world to me. Unfortunately Lizzie the bearded dragon crossed the rainbow bridge this past February. I know that you will believe me when I tell you that the night before her passing, I was sitting at the table just watching her, she raised her foot and she waved at me. NEVER had I seen her do that, nor had I been drugging or boozing that nightThe next morning hubby found her on her rock. I still have the tendency to want to cut up fresh fruit for her. I guess it takes awhile eh? Thank you again , my sister of soul and heart. I am blessed indeed to know people like you [maybe never to meet, but to still be a big part of what and who I am-because I learn compassion by their example as well]
    much love and Blessed Be,
    reenie
