Dear Sophie Jo,
Why such a hurry?
Slow down little one...
Your life will wait for you.
Take a little time
to rest in the care
of your loved ones.
They are pulling for you
like the moon pulls the seas.
Gentle...yet powerful
the tides roll.
So Sophie Jo...
Let their love roll
and kneed your little life
like freshly worked dough.
The fragrance so vibrant;
yeast, flour, gluten, salt...
and water...flushed with
that miracle of creation.
Water.

Then you may rise up.

Drink deeply dear one.
Breath deeply dear one.
Life will wait as you rest
in the caress of care.

Sophie...lover of wisdom...
hear your heart and live.
