To My Sister

A child in your body
from inception to birth
a part of you
Connected
One whole

Your son
growing outside your body
still so much
a part of you
Detached

You watch
You watch over
You care
with all your heart
Resources of mind
and body and soul
go into your child

He is the wealth
He is the reason
He is the one

This Christmas
Damian is not at the table
There is no answer
to why

This Christmas
I pray you feel
Connected
The whole of you
at One
with the Divine
with your Son

Ah Janaki - you have such a heart - acres of space within it, room enough for your sister, and her sorrow. Atheist that I am, I can see the impulse to the divine at such moments - your feelings are close enough...
