Maternal Comfort


A cool autumn morning
I step outside
The bright sun is dawning
I shield my eyes 
I breathe in deeply 
Warmth moves to my lungs 
warming and expanding- 
making me feel young. 
At this moment I feel 
the presence of others 
I move forward and kneel 
hearing whispers of ancient mothers 
our ancestors:- 
You comfort me 
and now I see 
I won't be alone 
During delivery.....
