This
poem was written in a blaze of creation…
It
emerged during a silent hike through the majestic redwood forest of Northern
California. It's included in my 2nd poetry book Rebirth of Venus, along
with many other poems celebrating the divine feminine mystery alive inside all
things.

Wild
Woman Creation Story
In
a time outside of time, before the dawn of Adam and Eve
the
spirit of Wild Woman was immaculately conceived...
Galactic
gyrations and spirals of light gave Wild Woman
the
gift of flight
She
came as crashing thunder, pouring down the rain
and
the Universe from this moment
would
never be the same
Wild
Woman parted her lips to sing and gave the birds their destined wings
Wild
Woman shook her hips to dance and colored the world in a state of trance
The
winds began to roll, the wolves began to howl and there upon her shoulder sat
all-seeing totem owl
From
bursting girth she gave birth to Earth
From
her third eye came the sky
Such
joy that the birds had found their home
inspired
her to cry
She
stirred her tears into a passionate potion that soon became wide open ocean
With
outstretched arms she began to whirl and the spirit of dolphins came unfurled
Wild
woman spread her legs laying embryos and crystal eggs
stones
and bones, gushing rivers, vital livers
She
shivered all the world alive amidst orgasmic quivers
The
spirit of Shiva and Shakti simultaneously revealed
lush
gardens exploding with fruits waiting to be unpeeled...
Wild
Woman dreamed a mighty lion to guide the way to the land of Zion
She
planted fields of corn and rice seeding ripe paradise
She
was maiden, mother and wise old crone
who
contained all mysteries to the great unknown
She
came like thunder before the dawn of time
delivering
the holy word in spellbound lyric rhyme
In
a flash of light
Wild
Woman appeared to set this Universe free
then
she hid herself in the deepest depths
inside
you and me.
