Born Again... Poem by Almedia Knight-Oliver

Born Again...

Rating: 5.0


If I could start all over again
I will right all past wrongs, and
will give your life purpose…
if I treated you cruel, abusive and
misguided you, forgive, and help me!
I'll shadow life in a new way, and
exude supreme love from seed to dust.

I'm bursting with know-how, of strength,
and eternal hope-no way like the despair.
Before. and after you were born.
I'm free from lack of financial resources and woes-
like when you were birthed and was unable to effect the
care needed for your ills: eczema, bronchitis, pneumonia,
all of which stunted our growth and so much more…
Numerous times wanted to take your place or leave mine empty!

SON, your long gone to dust, birth father, won't mind,
and just might rejoice in starting over again by, putting
you in my womb for a renewed life….
I'm spiritually enlightened and am better nourished: eats
healthy foods, good health care, and spiritually endowed;
and overflowing with loving care, and abundant healing energy.

So, I'll keep you in my womb until you cured, then, open
the door to my womb and birth you into the world of
light, and marvel my dragonfly suspended in the air
moving forth above pain and sorrow…did you know that
amazing things happen when you embrace life an just dance …
