GAIA

The mother of us all

shines sacred feminine energy on earth

the light in her is the light in us

may she forgive us our trespasses

Author's note:

Just as the recesses of mind open to a place of solace, the recesses of a city open to her majesty, Gaia.  Los Angeles earns a reputation as the City of Lost Angels, yet at its core –in the middle of urban chaos– lies a fertile, splendorous place of harmonic resonance.  Here Gaia chants the passing of seasons, winter rains, spring growth, and bird migrations.  In her midst, one is found.  To be found one must be wondrous.  To be captured in her essence, one must leave the outer world behind.  To immerse in her ecstasy–tremble with aliveness– one must let go.
