What Spirit says...


Embrace your weeping heart,
love it into existence,
the tears washing your soul
like showers from heaven.
Do not apologize for the time it takes.

Throw your hands in the air,
push your voice from your belly,
until angels hear the call of your wild self.
Greedily accept the caress of feathers
upon your dry and aching throat.

Walk hard upon the earth,
each footstep a commitment…
I AM HERE I AM HERE…

Awaken your Mother,
with stomping and wailing,
until she takes your heart in Her fist,
a clutch tender but stanch,
that will never let you go.

And listen with great concentration
to the wind
to the fire
to the sea
for within each of these one can hear
the fierce and the innocent
laughter of God.

Thank you SO MUCH for sharing these words today Deborah. I am grateful for more reasons than one!
They feel healing, nurturing and reassuring after a very full, emotional and creative day with spirit. Maybe I will be brave and share with you a piece of writing that flowed out of me today. :)
Blessings & kindness...
