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
