The Eternal Song of the World

Leaning into the waters that bathed
Those before me
I try to catch a glimpse of their faces
The women of long ago
Who tended the bed of this Earth
And like birds
Pollinated with their ancient voices
The ever resounding whisper of truth
That one day
I too
Will join them
And become the reflection
Of women to come
Searching in these same waters
The eternal song of the world
