Inner Woman
Heirloom

Glowing champagne globes reflected shimmer,

Purple spears of light sparkle,

Tiny knots keep them distinct,

Separated as surely as distance,

One ancient,

The other modern,

They live together,

Forever alone,

Then Mother

Then Daughter,

Now Aunt

Now Grandmother,

The amethyst and the pearl,

Together apart,

Live on as the strand slips through my fingers

Remembered love, hugs, comfort,

Heated hurt cooled,

Safe in their arms once more,

Nestled at my breast.
