Love Poem: Ankh

Written by: Rick Parise

Ankh

carved of wood and gilded in the purest of gold
I am the key to the afterlife

energy of the eternal life force
greet the spirits which hold me tight within their grip

I will bring a fruitful endeavour while you dance upon this earth
drink from the well of life my spirit forms

I am the tree of life
I am all joy
I am the zest of life

kiss me and touch me to your forehead
I will enrich your body and delight your soul

a gift of reproduction , regeneration and immortality
I am the womb

I am the fertile soil
the warmth of the sun
I will give the diety a gift to guide you

I am neither the beginning nor the end
I am the eternal.........
