From the womb of the Universe
we are birthed
made of star dust, hopes and dreams.
Imbued with love
we emerge into life,
one with all beings,
seeking kindness, connection, safety.
Searching for the nipple,
our mouths are hungry for truth,
justice, compassion.
Searching for tender touches,
our skin and bones
begin the dance of our destiny,
longing to unfurl the sacred memories
flowing through our DNA.
Our hearts know the way,
our feet take us forward,
venturing into the unknown,
knowing the serpentine path
will unfold, spiraling us back and forth,
bringing us home
to our soul’s journey
until we fly, once more,
returning to the uterine
cave from where
we all began.
