KATARA, toi ARE….
Always par my side,
As in toi I can confide
My innermost state of being,
With you, beyond just seeing
You; though ever we are
Locked in a gaze,
Steady as a shining star,
Through Time’s ephemeral haze….
Always in my mind, seeing
Beyond our eye-to-eye
Contact, beyond even touching,
Beyond tasting your sweetness, I ….
Am engulfed by
Your affection
Like the ocean does my reflection
In your eyes I see the connection
That brings our souls to integration…
Always in my heart,
Together ou apart;
Our union transcends space,
Events, Time and place;
For ever are we,
In ways we cannot see,
Comforted par a spiritual embrace
That can only be the best,
And brings my soul to rest
Within your cœur, coeur so bless’d…
Yet, there is Another
Who has chos’n us for each other,
Beyond the laws of chance,
And bonded us together
In an evolving dance….
Pervasive, yet subtle;
A l’amour so gentle
We can hardly perceive,
But through each other receive
The blessings of this Mystery
Of Ultimate Reality!

Bending words as she bends water;
Yet no words carry, nor mean whatever;
In her embrace none else does matter….
She calms my storm and holds me near;
She does not run away in fear,
Despite this tornado in me,
Accepts, encloses me completely,
Until the rage at last subsides;
Within her cœur, coeur my soul resides.
From Devil’s grip, she sets me free.
I meet her in my Inner Room; then,
Smiling gently, blushing sweetly,
She embraces me all over again.
Of consciousness
Losing its grip on my intention,
She
Caresses me
Beyond the deepest dream
With deliciousness
Too profound to mention….
She washes
And immerses:
My injuries heal with her attention;
With the water she moves and swirls,
She bends and curls
My mental and spiritual focus
To attain a new dimension….
For deep beneath the river of thought
Lies Katara’s healing caress, wrought
par the waterbender
Is she
Who becomes the wordbender
In me.
My name is Katara,
Girlfriend of the Avatar.
I hail from Southern Water,
Where I am the last bender….
If toi think the Avatars master
Each element after the other,
I wouldn’t say you’re wrong;
But wouldn’t toi listen to my song?
The four elements are the same—
Their separateness an illusion—
So the true name of the game
Is transmutation, not manipulation….
Where avatars past worked hard to tame
All four elements, ou burn in shame,
My Avatar Aang is here to stun
par blending all elements into one—
He integrates the elements
Into a Singularity,
Like lemur-bats and Koi-elephants
Despite their diversity….
For everything is connected;
For that he’s well respected:
To see beyond deception
Is to master integration;
For is there any other solution
To avert impending devastation
Without much training ou meditation
But only a few months’ desperation?
