Part III

As you may imagine, the litany went on and for how long, we know not…,
Finally, when we were totally spent and were in a zombie-like state,
Instinct took over, I lifted my daughter in my arms and carried her to the car,
Slowly, surreptitiously the spirit of the divine began to seep back into us, and to enliven us…,
As if some heavenly force were moving me, I drove to our favourite restaurant, were we wolfed down the most delicious Belgian waffles layered with maple syrup, disguised as the spirit of god, I’m sure…

Soon after, Africa began to do its healing work,
My daughter fell madly in love with a wonderful young man,
Who has given her another most beautiful baby girl,
Both their careers took off, they now live on an enchanting Mediterranean island,
And I am blessed enough to be able to behold their radiance,
Although, my trained healer’s eye, can sometimes see the sheen of sadness beneath the sparkles that reflect off my daughters’ diamond eyes…
