Poem
I met you on the road of Longing, As you took me hand in hand, My heart burst with love wide open, And so our journey began.- My Kings, my life is yours, I have lived to this moment for you, And from this very breath until my last, I am devotedly yours in all that I do. We splashed and played that day, Along the water's crystal edge blue. As the grey heron gracefully glided, And the gentle, green lace lay softly in dew. I looked at my First King and asked, As his eyes sparkled crystal blue, What will you teach me this day? For it was what you were born to do. At that moment, I barely caught him, As my dancing around him led to a fall, And although I knew he was hurting, With tears he said nothing at all. My heart, at the mere idea of, Causing my Little King pain, Like the most delicate glass it shattered, And I vowed to never be so careless again! "My Dear Mom, don't you understand? A perfect you is not what I seek, I want a mother who is brave enough, To dance with me when I'm strong or weak! Your love for us is without limit, In all that we are and that we do, Give us the gift of loving yourself the same, Be gentle and forgiving of yourself too." My Youngest King ran up to me now, And the sun sparkled off his golden hair, "My Dear King, will you still find me beautiful? Even when my glow and shine are no longer there?" "My Dear Mother, there is no beauty, Like the beauty you are in our eyes, As we are to you, the green in your world, You bring the blue to our skies." There in the forest, I began to sing, My sons' favorite lullabies, And suddenly the birds all joined in, Flitting down to us from the skies. Although my voice cracked horribly, And I constantly changed to a worse key, I noticed the boys smiled and hummed with me, As if I was in perfect harmony. As the sun glittered down through the trees, Casting green and yellow light shows all around, I understood for the very first time, To them I was the perfect act, perfect sound. My Kings, I spoke, slowing a bit, My eyes on the earth's raw floor, What if I just don't know the right things? Don't know the best or need to know more? What if I misguide the King's best ships? Or lead his finest ponies astray? What if you look to me for help in need, And I fail you on your most critical day? My tears dropped heavily onto the wide leaves, And my heart beat hard at the thought, Cruze slipped his small hand into one of mine, And Neeko the other then they told what I sought, Our, dear, sweet mother we ask nothing of you, Except your love and acceptance, nothing more. And just as I lifted my eyes to see them, I heard a distant mother lion roar. You are perfect just by being ours, Our Queen, our Mother, our Love, Just as we, your Sons, your Little Kings, Are your perfect gifts from Heaven above. Come walk through this life with us, Mom, And let use show you the many ways, We can share our lives and the joy they bring, In all of our many glorious, sunny, days. And when your gift of unconditional love, Mom, Has turned us from Little Kings into Great Men, We will present you with gifts to show you our love, A new set of Little Kings for you to love again!
