SISTERS
To Earth's(Our/My) Sisters--
Who ~ bravelydance their daily paces,
shineextraordinary light on ordinary places,
where othersfaint or fear to tread,
where laughteris born and tears are shed.
Who ~steadfast, courageously with bolding care
encourageunheard voices to dare, to share--
whose ownstruggling and vulnerability forge the way
for newbeginnings and brighter days;
Who ~spirited, passionate, seized by wonder
endure timesand worlds so torn asunder--
Daughters ofthe Universe, Mothers of Earth,
Midwives ofVision contracting to birth;
Who ~ Friendof the forgotten, Madonna of the Trail

Who ~ creative,innovative, for justice, for peace,
