GATEKEEPER OF HUMANITY

You who

Came into being from the ribs of man

And had an ancient duty of becoming the

Gatekeeper of humanity

 

The fertility of your womb

Received the availability of one sperm which

Carried the density of Destiny

And having gone through the brutality of childbirth

You launched Destiny into the world

As the Gatekeeper of Humanity

 

From the Two Divine Waterfalls

You nourished Destiny with the right nutrients

Accrued from the labour of nine moons and

Created by the Keeper of Humanity

 

Counting time in the heartbeat of patience

You have watched Destiny fully grown

The man-woman who was then a child

And the mother-father role you

Performed magnificently well

Repelling the cries with tender lullaby

And ensuring that Destiny had the knowledge of

Knowing the density of your dreams unfulfilled

 

The sacrifices made and the sounds of sweats

Echoing from the four winds reminding Destiny

That faith is ripe and due to be harvested in its season

 

It shall come to pass before the blessed silver strands

Emerge that Destiny fulfils the dreams unfulfilled

Be rest assured Gatekeeper of Humanity

Faith and Hope are harvested as Destiny

Blooms propelling a precious sob in praise of

The Keeper of Humanity.
