To a Smart Baby

by Linda Chapman

(For Tessia and her parents, my friends and healers)

What a smart baby you are

to choose this momma

and to choose this papa

As your Source

and Support.

Some people think your momma’s

An Angel.

I think so too.

I also think her angel feet are so firmly

planted on the earth.

That even though she flies so high

helping others heal,

she always bounces safely home

to you.

Some people think your papa’s

A Magician.

I think so too.

He wears so many hats

teaching what seems like magic.

“Either It’s all a miracle,

or nothing’s a miracle,” he says.

“The choice is always yours.”

And whenever someone

wants to wear his special hat,

He helps them find one of their very own.

So what was it, clever baby

That made you choose

An Angel and a Magician…

Who in loving embrace

Summoned spirals and shakti and

More than a few butterflies too…

And you.

Many people say you will be known

As One who chooses well.

I think so too.

Don’t you?
