REVERIE

I stand aside from them and see
The tears of joy and eyes filled with love
As the Humans cluster around my son.
I know how much my son means to Jim Kirk.
I have entered Kirk's mind - 
His tears of grief fell on my probing mind/hand
And his anguish was deeper far than mine.
So now is his soaring joy and wonder at my son's safe return.
My son has found more love than I ever have, or ever will, know;
I envy him that.
I do not know how his brush with mortality will affect him.
I do not know what his ultimate destiny is to be.
I only know that he belongs amongst his Human friends, and not with me;
His destiny lies with them.
The Cosmos has made him endure
More than anyone ever has, or ever should, endure.
May the Cosmos now grant him the peace and love he deserves and possesses.
Live long and prosper, my unique son.
