🖤To my girls for their love of fantasy🖤
By LJK
There's a Raven on our roof
It's undisputed proof
A message from beyond
A familiar with her bond
There's a Raven on our roof
Her squawk-unique in sound
For she has found her refuge
On our familiar ground
There's a Raven on our roof
She's set her eyes within
For she has seen our destinies
A new path to begin
She perched herself on windowsill
And without a doubt began to thrill
the likes of us she's never seen
And we in turn made her our queen
With fluttered grace, her news she brought
We let her in, without much thought
She winked and spied our greatest treasures
And pondered trust with greatness measured
She knew....she knew she could trust us
Greatest of secrets, shared with such lust
She spoke of her travels and preached far beyond
She knew we would listen, that we had a bond
There's a Raven on our roof no more
She's perched on my shoulder for all to adore
Formed every aspect- in our fabric she's sewn.
The Maiden, the Mother and the beautiful Crone
