Poem
"Blue Highway at the Cross Roads" When the child finds the imprints, the child will place its feet firmly in the Love marked, for the child alone brick walls along the Blue Highway to be smashed like teeth - to be broken, alone in pieces, learnt slow, independent is the only way to grow, in the child inner strength knows the true mother knows the tears that flow she sees her child always in her dreams butterflies and boilermakers flying monkeys and creeps courage is borne through belief in the child waking, to wake not too late the child becomes beautiful in the heart more aware of what love is she learns this where the fear of loss starts a smile will grow slowly again, always love in the heart is open like heaven the memories flood a life like rain rushing down magnetised minds stories and songs so much stolen, so much lost time, taken children and mothers conquer tombs they follow maps drawn a child commanding, the adult in her - steers with dignity her own boat the child will follow what was seen long before in before time dreams where there existed no walls marked “No” and to know fully what is absent for the child will understand eventually, the mother arrived before her she travelled the same road the mother knows the child, this, the child knows to listen to what the heart tells is to learn wisdom, courage - is required for this it's in caverns labyrinthine and deep oceans not shallow rock pools and babbling streams where jewels and pearls of wisdom grow begin to realise truth through lies and dreams resistance to falsehoods and following her own tomes brings broken roads to her, yet – detours, gifts to her own way home understanding of the one before her blooms, it grows eventually peace is seen, and held, for it is known what the truth, truly is the mind through truth knows what the heart truly thinks one must be water like tears and oceans gentle as soft rain and hard as storms - release resistance for love and peace like water must move with the flow electric mind, there is lightening bringing back to life heart fibrillating - to move forward reigning within the heart, love eventually flows to hold always - hard onto Hope, golden chord, Faith it never breaks it never lets go put in the pocket next to her heart seeds of what the one before her, the one who loves her most, sows faith inside the heart grows the child trusts again, she follows the golden chord the story told by Blue Faery long ago hidden rainbows truth and knowledge wait for the child now into woman grows journeys her forward along her own road where the one who loves her most waits patiently heart wide open waiting patiently for her barefoot where the sign reads, Blue Highway at the Cross Roads (LadyLabyrinth/ 2021) 7th Christmas “Surrender” (feat.
