This poem is about the “Sacred Feminine”… It emerged the winter of 2014 in the process of writing my third book, The Great Mother Bible. It is excerpted from the book.

So I looked at what Boysen wrote and thought his poem did need tweaking to address the Sacred Feminine, as I interpret the Sacred Feminine to be in the more ‘evolved’ women I know, and aspire to be. So that was the genesis of this poem. May each of us as women learn to step into this way of being sacred. Lordy knows, our Earth needs us to do this now.
