Half-Wolf Blessing

May your conception come
mysteriously, so that
i don't know who to blame,
or thank. May your presence,

secret and obvious in my body,
endow it with a new assurance;
grant to me, the mother,
a life-maker's inner authority.

May you be two, to counteract
your utter aloneness.
And may you be made female
and male, encompassing

all potentialities. Your fur--
may it be black & soft, and may
your muscles quickly learn to leap 
from my arms to scampering

after one another in the green field.
In innocence and joy. May you be
protected in the dream world, 
when i've gone. And may you break 

my heart upon the awakening.
