My Daughter is an Addict
My Changling:
Who crept soft among mine
With envious delight,
To rob me of preciousness
As if overnight?
How slowly I awakened,
From my blissful bed,
To find my child gone away;
A changling in her stead -
Bright eyes turned to angry stares,
No more laughing innocence;
What was once solicited
This being stoically resents
Pray keep me strong; accepting
Of this challenging changling, who
If I frighten her away from me
She takes my baby, too
(And sorrowfully I see
For now we won't agree,
Though I'm a changling,
too)
~~ me, 2006
