"Mother God"

 

God to me

Is my dark-haired Mother,

Stroking my forehead

As she lullabies me to sleep.

My Mother is the Earth

And all her Creatures,

The Web that brings us into Relationship

With one another.

God to me

Is the Mother

Who Spills her Essence into the World,

Creating and Calling us to Create

From the wombs of our Being. 

God to me

Is the Mother 

Whose Voice was Drowned out

For most of History,

And yet,

I find her in my Deepest Wisdom,

Alone, I feel her Touch

Upon my brow,

Mothering me still,

Mothering us all.
