With Grace She Binds ~ Bethany

May a star be-speckled sky be the road that lights your way, as a comet’s tail protects you and surrounds you everyday may the moons of ages past cast a brilliance on your life may motherearth hold the secrets as your footsteps land on strife I watched as you breached the void between the veils I’ve yet to lift, I first held your hand in friendship and my heart was thrown adrift So, in love with your first breath that I had nothing left to fear, see the one thing I always protect is something I now hold dear you’re the strength that god sent down to help me on my way, my little smiling devil and to thank the heavens I do pray now my child of grace and love shadows the face of the world she is the reason I’m leaving my paper-heart and love unfurled this prayer and spirit is binding to hold you on your way, I love you my darling daughter and will, forever and a day for my Gorgeous Daughter on her birthday 09.07.2010
