SKY-WOMAN REMEMBERS
ОглавлениеI loved strawberries
before I knew why.
They were so red,
they caught my eye on the path
as I stormed away from First Man—
because he had made me so angry!
When I tasted them, they were so sweet,
they reminded me of his love.
I wanted him to taste them,
so he could remember mine.
When I forgot all my anger,
I knew my Father
had thrown them down
through the hole in the roots
of the Tree of Life that stands
in the middle of Ga-lun-la-ti—
and soon enough,
I conceived.
