    The Blessing

    The Blessing

    A blessing shines itself unto us
    From within the darkness that was left
    What was taken will not be forgotten
    For the blessing won’t allow us to forget

    The blessing like the lotus
    Emerged from deep beneath the mud
    Like a phoenix who rises from the ashes
    The blessing came to us after the flood

    The flood came in a flash
    It followed the steady rain
    Took a part of all of us
    Showed us our inner strength

    But we see the worth of the water
    For it brought us the Dragonfly
    He flies ever so closely
    Watching us through guardian eyes

    Through his watchful eyes
    The Dragonfly could see
    A thick blanket of mud
    Layered on us in grief

    After the storm had passed
    A Rainbow covered the sky
    Light rain fell in silence
    Burying a seed deep inside

    The seed it bloomed ever so quietly
    As the Dragonfly secretly smiled
    For he had sent us the blessing
    As a gift to remember him by

    I'm re-reading this now and feel so much more that these words came from a higher place.

    Lastnight I was back in the ED trying to get help for the Retained Products I have.

    A friend and I were sitting well inside the ED waiting room and the automatic door opened up and in few a beautiful double winged, deep purple Dragonfly. I flew around us and landed perfectly on my friends dress and stayed there until we were called.

    I truely believe that our Reid has come back to us a Dragonfly now and as written in the poem, is watching us through guardian eyes.

    I feel so loved and safe knowing he's watching over us all.
