Cecilia/ Transmissions of Starlight / 8

 

She is teaching me 

how

to love again,

how to 

thaw

that coldness,

how to

trust,

through gentleness,

not forcing

 

She is teaching me

that

hail

is just frozen water,

that

Christmas

is in your heart,

not in a tree,

or in snow

on the ground

 

She is teaching me

that you can,

you should

love,

even when 

your heart

seems

to be breaking

 

She is teaching me

to listen,

to listen,

to listen

especially when

you don’t want to

 

 

She is teaching me

about lineage,

connection,

unbroken threads

of life

weaving unbound

in to 

each other

 

She is teaching me

about

Starlight,

remembering

gingerbread songs

in honour of the two of us

being 

always

left

unbroken

 

She is teaching me

to be

here,

now,

in the storm,

in the power,

in the stillness

 

She is teaching me

her 

ways

 

And I

I

get

to learn

 

Starlight

 

 

-       Trinity
