\u00abMotherly\u00bb<\/strong><\/p>\n

Call my name once more\u2014<\/p>\n

from within your murmured hush,<\/p>\n

so I may rise toward your breath<\/p>\n

and find my way back home.<\/p>\n

Let your clear, pure melodies<\/p>\n

rest upon the threshold of my thoughts,<\/p>\n

so I may call you mother<\/em> again,<\/p>\n

and return to you<\/p>\n

with the innocence of a child.<\/p>\n

Lift the weight of distance,<\/p>\n

the ache worn thin by longing;<\/p>\n

set me upon the wings of memory,<\/p>\n

so I may dwell<\/p>\n

in the air of your presence.<\/p>\n

I, weary of both worlds\u2014<\/p>\n

let me not remain without you.<\/p>\n

Where are you, my heaven,<\/p>\n

that I may rest once more<\/p>\n

beneath your feet?<\/p>\n

Call me\u2014<\/p>\n

for in the air of you<\/p>\n

I become a song.<\/p>\n

And even in autumn,<\/p>\n

beneath your sheltering shade,<\/p>\n

I bloom again.<\/p>\n

The fractures of your heart,<\/p>\n

the dust upon your robe\u2014<\/p>\n

I gathered them as keepsakes,<\/p>\n

to inhale them<\/p>\n

with a lover\u2019s devotion.<\/p>\n

You, the spring cloud<\/p>\n

set free to rain\u2014<\/p>\n

and when the dew of rainfall touches me,<\/p>\n

what can I say of myself?<\/p>\n

Call me\u2014<\/p>\n

for in the air of you<\/p>\n

I become a song.<\/p>\n

And even in autumn,<\/p>\n

beneath your sheltering shade,<\/p>\n

I bloom again.<\/p>\n
