I am a cloud
Blowing before the moon
A reflection
Of a reflection
A child of the Universe
Illuminated for no reason
But joy
I am a star
Tiny and bright among millions
My light
Is my gift to Creation
Revealing my intensity and fearlessness
With passionate intention
Unto death
I am a Redwood
Ancient and wise
My roots are deep and strong
I reach, like a temple, toward the sun.
A living bridge between heaven and earth
Lean against my knarley, soft bark
And smell the sweetness
Of my breath
I am a woman
With an open heart
Mother, Lover, healer, friend
I walk slowly through the trees
Under moon and cloud
Sun and star
Inspired by them all
And grateful
To be fully alive
At last.
