Sacred Vessel
November 28, 2010
They bring us into the world
Always putting us first
Their bellies grow vast
like a plump full moon
inside we grow
our tiny feet and hands,
bumping, kicking, pounding
against the wall of our Sanctuary
The voice we learn to trust,
love, and listen to
even if it takes a while
Their hands hold us before
we can even feel them
These mothers are our Sacred Vessels
guiding us safely
into the beauty of the world
