To Lady Havilah:

Greetings and rich favour,
bestowed by all the gods,
be upon you this fey-eternal day
as in the twenty seven hundred years past,
since your descent to the terrestrial sphere--
with love from the Garden fairies.

This is beautiful. Can you explain it more or comment? I really like it!

And sorry about the deleted comments - I kept writing my note about loving myself in the wrong place - twice. Reminded me of getting off interstate to turn around and getting back on going the same direction :-)

Havilah is the self chosen name of said lady, from the historical Genesis account of the land of gold around which the river Pishon flowed out of the garden of Eden. The rest of the numbers of time refer to the fact that one day is as a thousand in eternity.
