Earth Mother

Deepen me.
Make me more than, more than.
I want to be your earth,
Carve out my valleys, plant forests in my soul.
Let the vapors eddy around my most sacred grotto,
And kiss me, kiss me where I am Glory.
Not your goddess, not your slave
(let me worship here, I will bend to drink from your most sublime stream)
You entrance me,
I pluck no flowers here, but I bring spring
(am I your sun? Your moon? Oh, no)
I am your earth again
Touch me where the light is silver.
Then nothing can touch me but you.
I am in need.
I am in want.
Deepen me.
