Daughter of the Goddess
- Daughter of the Goddess -
Have I not thought oft on what it means to know my inner soul?
Some seek, in kindness, to know me and to in kindness console.
But others know me not, and they judge what they cannot see…
I, dwell beyond their understanding, as I am divine in my dignity!
Rise up thy spirits, children and brethren, and sisters and saints…
For thy Mother and Daughter, are with thee: my love acquaints.
Do I profane; do I blaspheme?
Nay, I merely state what I am: a queen.
If some call me a goddess, that is for them…
Let no one, their faith condemn!
Know, that I never bid anyone call me this…
They merely sought me out and I brought them bliss.
For that, some say that I must be divine…
If that makes me so, then so be it: let my Light shine!
I hold the crystal sphere in my palm,
Dost thou know the secret meaning?
The visions within respond to my flesh so warm,
And the light within shines without, gleaming!
All praises rejoice oh my children, all praises to my Kingdom!
Unto the glorious Goddess: do we give forth, all our praise…
Let us lift up our voice as one to cry out unto highest Heaven!
All glories: be unto the Light, even beyond the cycles of days.
The Daughter of the Goddess is the light of joyful celebrations,
The Daughter of God is the source of all thy sacred jubilations.
I am the Daughter, and my voice soars to the pure azure skies,
Whilst the crescent moon above my brow shines for the wise…
As all the hopes of the faithful, can be found within mine eyes.
And all the dreams of the righteous are mine to swiftly realize!
Jessica, Ariel, Donna, I hath many names my children do sing.
Jessica, Ariel, Donna, let the wisdom of the Goddess ever ring!
I am Jessica, I was Ariel; I was Donna.
Greater is my legacy, than that of Roma!
In the fullness of all time,
In the unfolding of destiny…
I hold a jewel that is sublime.
My children: come before me!
I am thy noblest divinity; I am the Light of my Blessed Mother!
And I am She, for that too is the burden of the Divine Daughter.
The higher that I do climb,
The more thou shall yet see…
That since the dawning of time:
I was ever there, ever with thee!
I am Jessica, I was Ariel; I was Donna.
Greater is my legacy, than that of Roma!
I smile for my children, and I am likened unto a beautiful dove!
There is not another like unto me, even before the Sun’s rays…
Not in all of Creation, nor amongst all of the stars, high above!
My children call my names, with high esteem their voices raise.
The Daughter of the Goddess is holy; holy be my ancient name,
The Daughter of God was I, even when cast into distant flame.
I am the Daughter, and I part for my children the darkest mist,
Bestowing unto each goodly soul, the promise of my holy kiss…
For me, sinful shame is parted so that my design can be purer.
Follow me if thou art: of a mind, and thy steps will be far surer!
Jessica, Ariel, Donna, I hath many names my children do sing.
Jessica, Ariel, Donna, let the wisdom of the Goddess ever ring!
I am thy noblest divinity; I am the Light of my Blessed Mother!
And I am She, for that too is the burden of the Divine Daughter.
I am the purest Light, upon the darkness that grips this world…
Blessed are my ways, and if thou learn them, thou art so saved.
Hasten unto my side, like a vessel with soft white sails unfurled!
For this, the faithful hath since ancient times tribulations braved.
Art thou coming, thou who loves me, even from out Creation…
Singing: singing joyfully the praises of our own beautiful elation?
Sing for me a song my children; sing for me a song of devotion!
For in song the soul may be perfected, deeper than the ocean…
Even more pure, than the waters of a bubbling mountain spring!
Thou call me perfect and good; then, unto me, goodness bring.
My very spirit is like unto the wind, water, wood, and fire itself,
Princess of the Elements am I, yet I conveyed no title on myself!
I am Jessica, I was Ariel; I was Donna.
Greater is my legacy, than that of Roma!
The higher that I do climb,
The more thou shall yet see…
That since the dawning of time:
I was ever there, ever with thee
I am thy noblest divinity; I am the Light of my Blessed Mother!
And I am She, for that too is the burden of the Divine Daughter.
In the fullness of all time,
In the unfolding of destiny…
I hold a jewel that is sublime.
My children: come before me!
I am Jessica, I was Ariel; I was Donna.
Greater is my legacy, than that of Roma!
My compassion is my treasure; my mercy I give, like a jewel…
Sound forth, the trumpets, for I stretch forth my hand in grace.
My gardens blossom, and the clouds gather, in winds so cool!
I behold these things as I sit enthroned beyond time and space.
Beneath my feet, thou shall find sin vanquished and fear gone…
Whilst some things ye thought sinful, we will exalt come dawn.
Behold ye, behold the face of a feminine savior, so triumphant!
Yet, I preach that ye may save thyself, without any resentment.
Humanity, I look upon thy world and wonder if ye are mature!
Dost thou glorify peace, and live in harmony with all of nature?
Glory fall unto the Elements, for they glorify Heaven’s domain,
Princess of Peace am I, and shall in my own way eternal reign!
Do I profane; do I blaspheme?
Nay, I merely state what I am: a queen.
If some call me a goddess, that is for them…
Let no one, their faith condemn!
Know, that I never bid anyone call me this…
They merely sought me out and I brought them bliss.

I hold the crystal sphere in my palm,
Dost thou know the secret meaning?
The visions within respond to my flesh so warm,
And the light within shines without, gleaming!
Have I not wept tears of sorrow that later became those of joy?
All praises rejoice oh my children, for we fall not for evil’s ploy.
Lift up thy voices, as one cry out unto Heaven; I will hear thee…
And for all of thy days may thou so be blessed, most delightfully!
Rise up thy spirits, children and brethren, and sisters and saints…
For thy Mother and Daughter, are with thee: my love acquaints.

For my illustration for this poem, I decided to use this photo of me sitting on my bed and holding a crystal ball, a photo that I took using my webcam. I added only the heavenly background with the small moon in the distance and the crescent moon over my head.
This photo really brings out the goddess within me, and so was perfect to pair with this poem! :)

What strikes me in reading this is you have adeptly illuminated the finer qualities that are routinely associated with a goddess. By curiosity leads me to wonder about the less then honorable traits!
Not to be an insult but this also reminds me of one of my favorite female rock stars, Stevie Nicks.

Well, all goddesses have light as well as dark qualities to them. The virgin as well as the harlot: the giver of life as well as the bringer of death. Ishtar and Ereshkigal - two halves of a greater cosmic whole. Some myths hold that Ishtar and Ereshkigal were sisters, whilst other, more secret traditions maintain that they are one and the same being but with a light and dark side. Much like some traditions say about God in fact. Since human beings all have this duality to them so I have always believed must gods and goddesses. So when I was tapping into my inner goddess nature, I had to naturally express both the finer qualities and the less than honorable traits in order to show that divine and cosmic balance between the two. Hope that helps you: to understand my reasons for this somewhat unique approach to such a poem. ;)
Regarding the comparison to Stevie Nicks, no insult could possibly be taken, dear Jazz, I used to love Stevie Nicks back in the day! I still have a Stevie Nicks T-shirt in my closet someplace, in fact. *Giggle*
As always, it was a pleasure to read your thoughtful and intelligent comments. :)
