Of Light
Suspended high in the sky, in your life
Often times hanging out
Quietly by
With a fierceness that can knock you over
Yet hold you steady
Those shining stars
Guiding
Opening your eyes
Your heart
Your possibilities
Illuminating the path you didn’t know existed
Their eyes recognizing stories your heart can’t bear alone
Their shoulders taking over when you slip into the dimension of the unknown
Carrying you until you can stand on your own
Only they know how monumental your tiny triumphs are
They’re the first to celebrate with you
The first to encourage you
The very first you give you the loving nudge you need
They send you off, prepared as you need to be
They don’t ask for anything
Their greatest reward
You
Whole again

I’m fortunate to have met two such women, the true definitions of empath, and superb human being - Willow and Ahavati. Thank you for reaching out and gracing my life with more than just your presence.
It’s no coincidence that Willow and I were chatting this morning about a poem that Ahavati wrote for her years ago when she was on her trauma therapy journey and then I open my updates feed a few minutes ago and find a poem written by Ahavati for me.
I wrote this poem last night before any of this took place.

Great shout out. Favourite lines, the last of which reminded me of the chorus of the Atomic Kittens song 'Whole Again':
They’re the first to celebrate with you

They send you off, prepared as you need to be
They don’t ask for anything

How wonderful that you and hopefully we all can have such support from one or many.
It does make a difference. And your write is a wonderfully written tribute of such.
I like your insight poems best. But that's just me. I know the masses of male writers like the other stuff more. Lol.

Thank you, Styxian
Secret: I like these poems best also. The others are just so I can exorcise all the muck.
