if i be a girl
far more i am the earth
and if i be the earth
i am the woman
i was meant to be
that which comes
from deep within me
strengthens you
sustains you
my waters console you
and cleanse you
though you know me well
i remain a mystery
my winds
the breath of God
my mouth
the movement of a prayer
my gifts
are for your wealth
to be used
or be not used
as you command
but in the end
even in your death
i take you in
and when i again
spring forth
it is with life
from your blood
that courses through me

FE, no one else is as eloquent as you are in capturing the female experience of love and life. How deep you reach inside to share and expose from the inside to the outside. Touch me with love.
ditto on what gypsy girl said.
your writing is very revealing and sensual and there is always some lasting lines that stay with you.
Mother Nature - a mysterious powerful force.
Wonderfully smooth.
