Universal Waters

Tranquil waters beckon

Her, expectant body

Longing 

for progress...

Slowly

she wades in, 

submerges

calmly exhales...

a breath of surrender

returning

home, gently

rocked by maternal 

waves, within 

and without...

Every molecule 

remembering

we are one.

She floats 

in this 

suspended (plane)

gloriously 

Weightless

before painful

rebirth

into this 

heavy 

world.
