THE MAIDEN

Goddesses

Maiden incarnation
the magic of the moon
song of spring
well of sweet beginnings

Perceive the power
of your own
Enchantment

flowering
flowing
unstoppable

You are the opening of joy
the laughter of being
the music of the stars

You are the liquid language of creation
the still pool of intuition
the strength of the sea

Understand
that you are
Whole

Centered within yourself
You are
Alpha and Omega
Consummate
Complete

Place your palms against your belly
Feel the lifeforce deep and strong
Place your fingers on your eye lids
Feel the pulse of heaven there

Whisper this gospel
Soft and certain
into the shells
of your own listening ears
“Precious . . . .
Precious.”
