moving away

The intelligence that is love
arrives as a bright eyed child

my entire being is now mother
I who have hiked trails and
ridden the wind on horseback
and dreamed dreams
am now adoring nursemaid to new life

my closest companion status is replaced slowly
then pops like a bubble
and I see the bliss of youth moving
into the great adventure

I must start anew

I delight in every laugh, caress, shared story
I am amazed at the beauty of life moving through me
into the unknown
I bless my children, my brilliant ones, who light the sky wherever they go with their brightness,
I feel their light
Thank you for your 23 years of being my home
As you move away
Scold me if I follow too closely
