Earth Mother


Day 28 of the Soul Card Journey
with Elizabeth Crawford of Soul's Music
Soul Cards by Deborah Koff-Chapin

In her day,
Traveler was
as fertile
as Mother Earth,
giving life to
four small voyagers,
who grew like
saplings
off her
sturdy trunk.
She fed them
with laughter
and snippets of moon,
(for wonder),
and soon
they grew
beyond her,
reaching for
an infinity
of sky.

Now, Traveler
reflects and
remembers,
basking
in the glory
of their
exuberant
flowering.

  3. This is beautiful, Sherry. I haven't been able to get round to read with napo and my work schedule. It seems I have missed some wonderful poems and posts. Things will calm down after April.
