For Karma Nurisha Wa Kupenda Lowe
for karma nurisha wa kupenda lowe
(poem for a letter too long to write)
cosmic gem of the universe
exploded celestial beauty
princess of the milky way
poured into
the waiting womb
prepared
that’s who you are
child of claimed prayer
moored on the shore of faith
anchored in the harbor of love
that’s who you are
jah’s chosen are never bare
sarah’s were tears of joy
and you—her new world karma—
blessed will be your womb too
that’s who you are
the north winked tonight
the crescent moon reclined—
what a glorious smile…reflecting
that’s who you are
wait and be of good courage
the pain of joy is coming…wait…
pregnant belief has always delivered
that’s who you are
Yahweh has never failed
and never will—forever
you’re ours and his blessed star
that’s who you are
twinkle…twinkle little star
blessed be the happiness
you bring
that’s who you are.
n.b.: peace and love
that’s who you are
dad.
