Birth
Let egg
embryo
germ
and
generation
descent
and
derivation
root
in the source
of her origin
let seed
stem
well
ripen
until
her life-force
unshackles
from shell.

Release
―for Mother
She lives in mist, she lives
in moon, where starlit nights
display. She lives near banks,
where currents turn, where
river’s rush is cradled,
where wilderness resides.
She lives near cliffs, where
swallows nest, where ferns
and trees abide. She lives
in Earth, where birth endures,
where permanence survives.
She lives through love,
in eyes that tear, in hearts
that gently pray, where songs
along Stonehammer lift this dust-
divining day.
