La Luna

Grandmother moon

floating softly

through iridescent clouds

silver and blue

La luna magestique

Above mountain tops

like a river

the clouds float by

Brilliant white glow

showering me with her life

her love

cascading down

covering me with 

mystical energy

filling me up

and up

Tell me

what you have to say

share your language

Mystery in the sky

But I know you

I am you

I am your daughter

Double Nickels

I am 55 years young

This is the body I was born into
I am so grateful for it
It's a pretty great place 
for my soul to live

I don't always take the best care of it
But I try
I'm still learning as I go

I have some wisdom
accumulated
as the nickels stack up

My body is wise
My soul knows

We are all bits of stardust
We are golden beams of light

You and I
We are the same

Out of the cosmos
We traveled
And landed here
 
For just the briefest of moments
The blink of an eye

We dance
We pray
We love
We give birth

And start the cycle over again

Happy birth day to me

Thank you mother
for bringing me here
to dwell
and do my best

In the blink of an eye
