II
In saying Thank you
I pray that you do not misunderstand
Your indifference and ignorance
Has not misled me
Or pulled me where I was not meant to go
Instead, with your help
And the kindness of your anger and distain
Has propelled me forward
To this moment now
I embrace you with deep love and understanding
And care for you as a child of my own
Thank you for the gift of you
May each day that arrives in your heart
Hold you closely and fill you with the utmost joy
May you be released from suffering
And know always deep peace
