Mantra

Be silent as the waters flowing, 
Gentle as their deep caress, 
Be wise and gracious, ever knowing 
Empathy and tenderness. 
Be beauty in a wondrous vista, 
Radiant as the firefly, 
Be to the stars an earthly sister, 
Exquisite to the naked eye. 
Be elegant and hypnotising, 
Magnet to this heart unbound, 
Be delicate, uncompromising, 
Fleet of foot and light of sound. 
Be everything that my behaviour 
Begs and pleads to rise and shine, 
Be one with me, my love, my saviour, 
Forever more be mine...
