Our Mother

Our Mother who dwells within
You are love
You are soft
I lie down and rest
in the folds of your skin

Our Mother who dwells within
You are strong
You are power
I rise up and move mountains
with the strength
that flows
from
my
little
finger

Our Mother who dwells within
You are not safe
You are alive
I see your breath
I feel your pulse
Core to Core
we are connected

I am not alone
