Poem Artwork

Peace
is pregnant
within woman
The world
is in her womb
The four elements
sweep the world
around her
Preparing the earth
for rebirth
She cries
writhes in pain
The contractions
circle through her
As doves
circle above her
The world turns
towards the light
Its crested head
pushes through
darkness
Woman
will hold the world
Nurture it
to wholeness
Peace is pregnant
within woman
The world
is within her womb


 


(c) Linda Gayton 2005

If only everyone could be conscientious about living in a world at peace we might live to see it some day. Women truly are the mothers of our world, I pray They can learn to see their way through the darkness into the light. Excellent, thought provoking. Pierre.

They say that the most cunning of murderers are female and that they are far more brutal than men. Hell hath no fury..., etc. I do believe that women understand the value of life a bit more than our male counterparts if for the carrying, birthing and bonding alone. It seems that female leaders are every bit as ruthless as the males, though. Our future lies in the children of today, I hope they do a better job than we have. This is excellent writing, Linda!!!
Take care,
Sherry

True very true for most. Sad very sad for many that are killed in the sanctuary of the womb...
