Soleil

In honor of Adrienne's 1st birthday

We waded into seas
Of darkness
Losing hope and sight…
And then a whisper
To lift our eyes:

Chase the light.

We desperately needed
Life and good
And found it
Within my womb

Radiant one
Our summer sun
You took your time
And arrived
In all your glory

When dark returns
You light the way
Reminding us
That glory is all around.
