07: The Body - July 2021

Gaia My Body

The mountains in the valley
 like the curves of a woman,
 the rivers that run deep
 over rocks, my flesh,
 the water as my blood cascading 
 waterfalls as yoni nectar,
 your body is
 my body.
 
 The crisp air as pure energy,
 I breathe your breath,
 as one,
 the smell of the rich earth,
 the scent of sweet grass,
 the swaying flowers
 radiating their perfume
 as an offering of sacredness to me,
 to show me my beauty.
 I bow to it all in 
 deep reverance.
 
 The trees bow down to my brow, in
 unity crowning me with their leaves.
 I stepped into your crystal waters, 
 holy silk wrapping my body,
  back to your womb,
 held, floating, as I lay on my back 
 as the sun shone its dappled light
 through the trees, onto my body.
 

Water carressing my body
 with her holiness, baptised by
 nature’s healing, replenished,
 rebirthed a new.
 I climbed onto rocks and felt 
 the warmth from Her, speaking to me
 in her poetry.
 “You are my daughter
 I embrace you,
 the balance is returning, 
 swim in my waters, walk barefoot,
 sing to the flowers and the trees,
 put your womb to my womb, 
 cry your tears,
 I embrace you,
 I hold you,
 we are one,
 one body.
