Anointed at the Core

I.
I am in love—
Flooded with delicious warmth.
Cradled in ribbons of tender feelings.
Held sweetly by Divine timing.

II.
With a prayer in my heart—
I embrace this new start.
The adventure of a lifetime
Gave me pause—
Until I knew for certain I did not want to be left behind.
Heart and lungs and wings lead the way.
I’m not worried about the details—
Just the following of my dreams.

III.
We all meet there, over the hill—
The sunrise is golden, treetops holding up the sky.
You and I; children—
Playing, laughing, singing—
Dancing—
Free.
Free to heal and just be—
Create and give back to each other—
All that’s in our hearts to give.
Beautiful, beautiful destiny.
Simple and sweet.

IV.
My belly button—
Is where my mother nurtured me most purely—
Naturally.
None of her wounding yet haunting me.
Nothing in between our—
Closeness.
I touch there gently, cleansing with water—
Anointing my tummy with oil, I feel how it feels.
Sweet relief.
Emotions freed.
I forgive her everything and myself.
Nature heals even the most persistent hurts—
And can be given to self.

V.
Maybe we heal each other—
Maybe our connecting with self and others can—
Grow hearts up—
Risen to the sun—
I am enough.
You are enough.
