Progeny

She told me quietly

"He will hurt you"

But she also said that the energy that

surrounds and protects me is

the child that I gave birth to in the last life 

and is waiting for you to

find a suitable mate to

step up to the plate.  

Fill that plate

with fruit

fruition and the nutrition

that will bring new

life to this world and 

our lives.

She also said that

the sky is green and birds fly upside down.

Regardless,

This energy pertains and is

sustenance for

a family kind of life.
