Prodigal Daughter

The lost daughter woke up 
and returned to herself, 
and determined she no 
longer wanted to be lost, 
and determined to 
return to her Mother. 

When she was still very 
far, her Mother saw her 
and had compassion 
and dropped everything 
She was carrying—Her 
golden weaving and grief— 
and ran to her, Her precious 
daughter now found, 
and threw herself into 
her arms and kissed her.
