I took myself on a walk today
As I do most days
An act of devotion
A daily self care regimen
where each step is a prayer
A moment of inner peace
Of walking my way back home
Of walking my way out into the forest
…to be lost
…to be found
lying on the ground
arms overhead
butterflies painting my face
the sky whispering
:hello sweet daughter, i love you:
I took myself on a walk
and found myself
only a piece
an alchemical code
lying on the side of the road
hands over heart
eyes closed
tears slipping down my cheeks
bathing in autumnal airs
;I whisper to myself;
:i love you, sweet one, no need to hide:
That sweet, divinely innocent once within
The one whom you can’t un-know once you see her
Scooping her up we walk
taller than before
stronger than before
with wet eyes and a blue feather in hand
we march
toward fires
to remelt the pieces of our very fragile heart
rebirthing
renewing
honouring what has longed for our honour from the start
I remember
dancing freely
in the sun
with the whole of me
& you
as
One
