Part 8 - My Thank You

Do bear my yoke, for it is stronger than I, Within I will lie and I will draw nigh, Relaxed, here in your warmth; summer’s July I’ll give, I’ll take, we’ll share every supply. Because of you I am able to breathe, How to repay this most congenial deed? All bounties and measures you do exceed; Therefore, my gift to you must supersede That which was given and that which I know, Children birth in your name I would bestow, And I’ll take them to the highest plateau. There in homage of you we’ll freely soar. My words I keep, on my life have I sworn; The eagle comes out of its shell reborn. Copyright © 2010 Leslie Alexis
