My pocket of the world is filled Of women who know the sound of wisdom on their own tongue Like stick knows stone like Honey dripping backwards from the the comb like Planet knows patience like Honest-to-Goddess-truth and nothing quieter than that
My heart lives in the home that is Girl and Mother Wonder and Womb Made of all that is alive and Built by sacred hands
And I want to swim to the Moon and call her my sister Drink wine with Dawn and Tell her the myth about Eve Just to hear her tender laugh Tell her she is what makes the tides turn Tell her I belong to Love! And Love is a woman! And there has never been anything more beautiful than that!
