These works are translated by a creative, young girl whose growth was interrupted. The gravity of her pain is buried very deep. This page is an effort to rescue her expressing as God allows, her thoughts as they unfold. Now as she peers through the lens of a woman, she endeavors to free herself. As she taps into those hidden places, a true poet is sure to emerge. I hope as you read, you too will unearth some things inside yourself and with her, continue to grow.

These Waters
Come to my well of water and drink
Consume until you overflow
Recline beneath this gulf of plenty
And the refreshing springs
Take comfort and remove your garb
Be free upon these waters
Dive in without fear, explore the deep
Rehearse the song of the seas
Allow my love to wash over you
Flow freely through your loins
Swim merrily among dolphins
While coral reefs reveal their secrets
Drink, and never find thirst again
Abandon the dry lands of famine
Retreat into this bliss unknown
Discover the depths of our love
Surrender to all creation's groanings
Thoroughly cleanse in streams of passion;
Rejoice with me as this healing river
Replenishes without ceasing
Quench your longing, so carefully hidden
Refill your empty quiver with strength
Relieve your virile appetites
Spray my ponds with your rapturous joy
Rest beside glistening, sapphire rapids
'Neath the showering waterfalls
Surf along the whispering waves
Under the moon's seducing glow
Commune with me where the brooks doth sing
In tribute to love everlasting
Let us dine upon the fruit-bearing trees
As the ever-flowing fountain, emulates my love for thee
