Every Word

Like a mother giving birth

May I beautify the earth

Honor fire, wind, and surf

Melody of mockingbird 

Every baby, lady, sir

Should they somehow be unsure

May I show them what they're worth

Bring them merriment and mirth

Spider, cider, whey and curd

May I share all I've procured

With my every single word

May I love and may I serve

Christina Contending

A seagoat ascending

A lion presenting

In front orienting 

Protecting, preventing 

An artist inventing

Inspiring, extending 

Supportive at friending

Forever, unending

She's never relenting 

Christina contending 

This Child

God give this child her wings

Lift her up above these things

These outrageous arrows, slings

Of misfortune life may bring

Swaddle her in serene scenes 

Send her sweet angels to sing

Show her all her might and means

Her blue skies of wiser beings

Help her fly to find her dreams 

God please give this child her wings

Amanda

Send her extra love and help

For the sun is in her 12th 

Despite inner whim and wealth

Amanda doesn't know herself 

Learns from Virgos, we who spell

Out her issues all too well

(Is there nothing we won't tell?)

Date of birth does not exist

3 of 4, she is a myth

Leap year princess with a wish

To traverse this earthy ish

Packaged in a Pisces fish

Swimming in our fish and chips

Surfing with a turfy dish

Listening to our bullet lists

It's how she will conquer this

Invitation

My father could fix you, he has a green thumb

I'm sorry I overly watered you some

I wanted to love you, 'cause you're #1

At making my place feel incredibly fun

Like I am Apollo and playing the sun

By smiling and shining upon everyone 

You pay me in petals with colors that run

And fill up the cracks in the breaking I've done

With fragrance and radiant styles that stun

I forget to worry and think of problems

Your presence's a lesson, a beautiful one

So thank you for taking my invitation

Water Way

Where there's water, there's a way

Gentle winds that swim and sway

Moon to move our moods and waves

Ships to sail and reeds to play

Sand on which to sit and lay

Dollars of them for to pay

Things with wings that bathe in bays

Seals and eels who've come to play

Sea urchin and undine fae

Shells held to your ear that say

They were home to crab and cray

Now they're here and on display

Blessed are we to share this day

Open Heart

Silver star and lily white

Replace my gate with pearly light

Scarlet sun and pink kunzite

Beautiful as you and bright

Neither fence nor sword in sight

Done defending, I invite

You into my world of might

Love is fuel and we don't fight

Knife each other or backbite

Words are cures and all I write

Speak and think and then recite

Filled with will to make it right

Clear as tears and like lucite

Open up my heart tonight
