Grandmother's Poem for her Granddaughter

Love Poem to my Granddaughter
by 
Grandma Baadsgaard

Happy Birthday Rachel. I love you so.


You begin here
Breathe in, breathe out

New dwelling place
Euphoric surprise
From darkness, into light

I end here
With me in you

Mortal relic
Transfiguration

Where you are
There I am

I will go on
In you

Too soon parting

Matchless mystery

Quietude



All will be well
With me and Thee

Breathe In, breathe out
Awake, asleep

Goodnight
