Heavenly Contemplation


If Coletrane had played
Only one song
It would have been the sound
Of your laughter

If Einstine had discovered
But one equation
It would have equaled
Your union

If Vango painted
One single picture
It would have been
Your image

For you are beautiful

As though God
Had finally decided
To show Earth
The magnificence of divine perfection
It makes me feel
As though you may
Simply disappear
Too good for human corruption

The sun dims
To honor your royalty
The constellations rearrange to
Add your image
For you are shinning stars

If you could
Compress all of Stevie's songs
And come up with a
Single phrase
It would pay homage
To your very existence

And I don't wanna
Bore you with it
Oh but I love you
I love you, I love you
More and more
Each day

Like sun and moon
Finally got together
And birthed Earth
As we stars
Come barring gifts
Like wise men

May your names be
Chiseled among those
Who are the heroes
Of everlasting love

Heavenly bodies collide
In brilliant flashes of light
To create new solar systems

You are loved beyond description
It is so, and it is good

by Empress Nzingha

For my brother and sister
In honor of their union
Creating a third
