A Life of Tiny Miracles

As I tried to ride my way to salvation

on the hips of man

I never would have dreamed

that it would come in the form

of you two.

I swayed my hips in the natural dance

of our ancestral mothers,

I felt the infinite soul-web

ebb and flow

with every mindful breath,

I heard the human animal moan

escape my lips

as I laboured through the tension

of deliverance contractions

and I encountered the sacred 

in the newborn eyes.

My little marvels,

my beautiful mayhem.

Bringing constant adventure,

lessons on rolling with the punches

and laughing through chaos.

Challenge,

and triumph.

Smooth gliding,

and rocky rolls.

Temporary foes,

and permanent allies.

Torment, tears,

and true love.

Evolving my existence

into vibrant health,

wiser beauty,

greater strength,

softer touch,

gentler speech,

and blossoming compassion.

Teaching patience and acceptance,

how to slow down to feel the sun,

speed up to chase the wind,

and explore each day

brimming

with tiny miracles.
