Birth

Starting with love
in a moment of ecstasy

Two cells unite
merge into one

In that moment
the Spirit enters
and life has begun

Cells divide and grow
becoming layers, organs and bones
creating in infinite perfection
the human form

Each part dependent on the whole
a complete system
designed to protect and preserve

A separate being
develops and grows

Her body adapts
responds
nourishes
prepares

From the moment she becomes aware
of the new life inside
the process begins

Transforming her to
Motherhood


When each stage is complete
her body starts
the progression of events
the complex dance
leading to birth

Beginning slowly
gradually building intensity
she labors, she works

Her body mechanisms
flawlessly designed
stretches
e xpands
p ropels


The pain
gradually becomes
overwhelming
excruciating
agonizing


She draws on the Power
of generations of mothers
who each birthed before her
the knowledge buried into her cells


She breaths
she screams
s he faces fear
she draws upon an inner reserve
of strength
she did not know was there

She transcends
she becomes one
with tThe Mother
as the power
fills her

She pushes beyond
her limits of endurance
until slowly
a head emerges
then the rest of the baby

Her child
once interconnected
becomes a separate being
and she transforms
into a mother

Completing the circle
of love
of ecstasy

A miracle
Life

04:27

In the stillness of the early morning
before the sun has even begun
to color the sky
rests a quiet peace

The chill of the night
surrounding and enveloping
drawing one inside
y et the setting moon beckons


The world sleeps on
while a few tend to modern life
a woman may labor and birth
the aged pass over quietly

In the transition between night and day
resides a time
where the energy of the Creator
is in Full force

It is a time to pray
and breathe
and sing
and move

And take the peace
the time brings
into our heart
to remain throughout the day

Circle

Fueled by the energy
of love
In a circle of others

We joined
and created a circle
of our own

With the fullness of the moon
with her rainbow circle of light
shining on us

Love and Light entered
together our hearts joined
without expectation
without fear

And met with a circle of joy

You held me in your arms
and rocked me
until I was ready
t o surrender to the circle

The doors to my heart
the walls and boxes
so carefully locked
opened
pain and fear kept buried
suddenly released
to float away
free in the circle

Beyond you and I
entered the spirit
offering healing
through the circle

My path became clear
to choose to follow
and live in the light of the circle

Peace is a Process

Peace is not absence of conflict
But the process of resolving it

Peace is communication
The process of negotiating meaning

Peace teaches us
We learn from the process

Peace is everyone's responsibility
The process begins within

Peace is the next step
In the process of evolution

Peace opens our minds
The process expands our hearts
