Fated
Formed from the seed of love thoughts prime
a child was woven heroine
biblical prophetess in time
Deborah was such, a name chosen, mine.
Like a lightening bolt was she conceived
a joining of aspirant souls
seeking other primal roles
into a world of controversy she was received.
This fiery woman, a rousing Queen Bee
Debbie the mothering maid
the battle leader, judge conveyed
authority and responsibility hers to seed.
Compatriot of Moses she, from tribe of Ephraim,
Mother of Israel was she.
The equal of every he,
such is the burden given me from the Father of man.
Upon the shoulders a such a frail form
this mighty burden laid.
The outcome heaven made
for all of life is tested and the "bees" are born.
