The Lesson Learned

The submissive knelt at her Master's side
Her eyes were filled with tears
She bowed her head not dareing to look upon his face
And trembled with wanting and fear
"My Master" she said in a quivering voice
That spoke far more than her words did say
"I present myself to you for punishment
For I know well my crimes this day"
"And what were those crimes my little one?"
Her Master did say with a frown
As he looked upon the collar upon her neck
That she wore as a princess wears a crown
"I was rude, abusive upon you my Lord
I spoke to you in a manner to which I had no right
And so I now bring to you your flogger and bare my flesh
That I might be made once more worthy of your sight
I know my sins and know them well
We both know the words that I did say
Pleace accept my offering and remove this stain
For the shame I cannot bear another day"
Her Master looked down upon her, wise and strong
He understood the feeling that like a river ran in her heart
He reached down low and gathered her unto his breast
This woman of whom he was so much a part
"Come with me my little one" he said
As he smiled and softly took her hand
"There is something that I think you need to see
If you are to hope to truly understand"

And gently her Master took her from the room
Took her to a cliff overlooking the sea
She realized there was a lesson to her that he would teach
But had no idea what this lesson might be
"Look upon the waves my love" he said
"As they pour upon the rocky beach
An eternal dance of stone and tide
A language far beyond that of speech
As they spend themselves upon the barren stones
Does it anger the shore that it must accept it's blows
Or do the rocks accept and allow the anger the waves to be spent?
Understanding sometimes the strong must accept rather than oppose
You were angry at things you could not control
And without thinking you spent that anger on me
I accept that anger in strength and love
As do the cliffs accept the anger of the sea"

She knelt at his feet as a tear did fall
Like soft and gentle spring rain
And looked with love at this gentle man
To whom she was bound to by love, the strongest chain

"When you are bad my pet" he said with a smile
"Rest assured you will in full measure feel my wrath
To descipline you without understanding the reason why
My love I will not go down that rocky path
So rise my pet and stand at my side
And know that we two are in truth but one
For the dance is not over and the music still plays
And the magic has not even begun"
