Prayer for Matylda

Gentle swells of distant promises
Holding them dear to me
Like fireflies in the palms of my hands
In my evenings you rise and in my mornings you sleep

It is amazing how I know you so well
Without knowing you at all
Countless times of sharing and nurturing
I am grateful

I am grateful for the time we spend together
You are a very valuable part of this world that we share together
And I hope you never forget that
