I Never Tied Her Ribbons To my daughter Jackie, surrendered for love, found for love Born: January 1, 1971 Found: February 9, 1989 by Cynthia Haynes	I have been asleep until today when she swept into my dreams like an afternoon shower and wet my eyes with her rain. it was cool -- running-brook sounds -- and her scent of splash. I have been adrift until today when she appeared on my horizon like an island of tropical meaning and fed me visions of mist. it was intoxicating -- drunken-pool images -- and her laughing waves. I have been alone until today when she took my soul by the hand like a young cloud eager to float me across her skies. it was pillowy -- cream-spun thoughts -- and her languid softhood. I have been alive until today when she claimed my future pulse like an artery full of paradise from heart-rivers. it was rhythm -- blood-born music -- and her mercury dance, silvery. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cynthia Haynes also has a biography/memoir in Mother Millennia, which she titles: "Family and Forbidden Zones: Finding the Keys to the Moon."
