Oshun's daughter luxuriates in Her blessings
on the river bank
Awakening to her own love, she discovers her
sacredness as her luminous reflection shimmers on the water
She is a peacock, shameless, proud and brazen in her beauty
She is charitable like the honeybee, like the vulture
She revels in the delights of her sensuous copper body
Dancing with hummingbirds to bring love into the world
She looks into the mirror, for a glimpse of her elegant heart
and finds solace there
