I've fallen and emerged with swells of a red ocean’s crescendo
I am no longer the same sad siren
now her wonder whips grief back into the curve of a wave
that had taken my faith in the tumble
le petite morte
I rise from the froth like the phoenix
ribbons of new wisdom flap from my wings
she seals my open heartache when I land on the
shore of my own mothering and
I am able to love

Not only beautiful, but healing and comforting to know that you are seeing goodness & purpose in the world again. Nice blog.....very inspiring. thanks for doing this! I miss you so-so much. I know that I am not all that accessible myself (this is true), but it is hard (for me) to loose Aida the swingle sex nymph and get Aida the earthmother in her place. It's an adjustment... and you know that adjustments are hard for me.... and life is always about adjusting. I must have a little Scorpio in my chart somewhere to cling to such minor details, huh?...hah...Happy New Year to you three and mucho-mucho more happiness in 2007. Yeah!!--VD
