Mother
of air and fire,
of air and fire,
inspire
us
to weave desire
into everything we do;
make our hearts true.
be our needle
Mother
of stone and earth,
rebirth
in us
a reconnection
to the land beneath our feet;
make us complete.
be our bridge
Mother
of woods and watery
stillness
teach us
equality through empathy
for all living creatures grand or lowly;
all life is holy.
be our balance

Aho!
Simply beautiful, Michelle! :o)
lovely.
Thank you. :-) I had inspiration from a writing place that sets you a challenge of words to use. This just leapt out of the word choices, for me.
Beautiful! Thanks Michelle. Your words are an inspiration to me. I really enjoy your blog. :)
Thank you, Janine. That was so nice to read.
Truth is I only write things worth reading when I'm inspired by others myself. So it's a constant circle of us all needing each other. :-)
AMEN to that, M!!! :-))) It's VERY true what you say about the constant circle of us needing each other. Beautifully put. :-)))
Wow, such a lovely poem, Michelle. Think I will print it and use as a bookmark, if that's okay.

Thanks Amel :-)

Sure, I'd be happy to think of you using it as a bookmark. I know you'd be good and put my name on it. You were one of the very first people who took the time to find me and email me about my poem.
Hey, if you get orders for bookmarks... I want royalties! LOL ;-D
Thanks Michelle, if you ever have bookmarks of the *Mother Earth Prayer officially printed and made available, I would be the first to order a few (!).
*Really Timeless.
PS: Congrats for having it published in The World Prayers Project! :-)
