“Rebirth
“I have died in the ocean, towered by waves.
I have died at the bottom of a sharp cliff.
I have died in the midst of lonely nights.
I have died on my knees on the sidewalk.
“I have died and have been reborn,
Brand new like a baby with breath
Still fragrant of mother’s milk.
There is laughter in each discovering step.
“I have returned to be the child of earth and sky,
Full of wildflowers and dancing grass.”
