AUMMM Kali-Ma!!!

Such fond remembrance
And curious exploration
We share

Be welcome and warmed!
Great Kuan Yin!!

Your generosity and compassion
Inspire and challenge me
In my immaturity

Consider my home yours
Oh Queen of Heaven!!

Precious gifts are your starry eyes
Your delicious wit
And your dancing smile

Green Tara!!  Green Tara!!
How joyous your presence!

Let us make you a bed
Of rose petals
That you may sleep in comfortable bliss...

Presaged in love,
Infused in mystery

The wonder of our meeting
The power of your touch

Swirling winds of gasping breath
Flaiming whorls of passion
Calm tears from emotional pools
Embracing the solid structures of ecstasy

You become the center of all truth
	   the source of all beneficence
	   the creatrix of motivation
	   the giver of love's abandon
	   the foolish pleasure of pure harmony

Recognize adoration in these eyes
 Discover adulation in thse lips
  Realize the mark of dedication in these hands
   Delight in the divine play of this love

For Thou art the Jade Empress,
Queen of the Sea,

Mistress of mystery and knowledge
 and Arbiter of balance in the Cosmic Ocean
   of Life's empire.

Thank you for your strength in body and in mind
 Thank you for your compassion, to love and to be loved
Thank you for your humor in generation and in sense
 Thank you for your being, sending out waves of pleasure
Thank you for your beauty, displaying the fruition of your wisdom

and

Thank you for your weakness, that we may grow and learn
 Thank you for your distance, that we may have room to explore
Thank you for your intensity, that the play shall have meaning
 Thank you for your emptiness, that you may be filled
Thank you for your ignorance, that we may discover a new vision

Welcome lovely Jade Empress into a magical life of color
 and deep reverence for things feminine and masculine

 Know that your time is precious to me and your attraction
 is reflected in my eyes

 May you find your Way in times of dark and light
 May you encounter the depths of your soul's journey
 May you entertain a never-ending fascination in imagery

I love you now and forever,

AUMMM Kali-Ma!!!
