Nileah


Nile beams as proud Mother of the land, 
it's benefactory, gland.
Rushes to tend, to lend her foster 
fauceted facet of hand-maidening 
brand of bands in bend.
Oasic endow'n.
Matriarch, life blood gives, with arch of brow,
busy busy show.
Cache Cow.

Papyrus Pupae peeks up, her adopted, 
Tamarisk, Acacia. Ebonies and Reedlings,
latched to her lactate tit.
Swaying, carefree Tops of Topologings 
in the desserted cream of heat.
Bestow~ings.

Be ye blessed if you become Barren, 
to (know) the miracle of Elizabeth, 
(one well beyond her years)
Mother of John, that one 
(who Baptised Man in your sister, -_
Jordan, of joyful tears.) 
Fertile Sow.
So be it, be then blessed to again, 
cream your milking and honey dew 
your tap of berry beers cheer.

Verily so, endow anew, your Motherhood, to the Neighborhood, 
to the Crocodiles and Textiles and Dunes. 
Again, gain flow er in pregnancy, 
in busy busy show er, 
shedding advocacy in pinks and blues.
