With each of my children
A portal opened
As the power gripped my body
And my hands clenched and grasped
As I took shaking breaths
And entered the cosmic darkness.
Seeing past, present, future
The timelessness of the woman's gateway.
Both times
My brow kissed
With the blessing of the Mother.
I soared
And I dove
Into the shadow of the deep
Into the cavernous earth
And the whispers of my ancestors.
Each time
My expanded consciousness
Sending ripples of breaking change
Across the perceived notions
Of who I was
Who I was able to be.
The path it changed
The path it was exploding
Into possibility.
Led by the heart, to the very
Depths
Of me.
