And the Great Mother Said | by Linda Reuther
I first heard this poem while in Portugal on my Uma Dinsmore Well Women training course. I instantly felt so emotional, so loved, so nurtured. I felt safe in the arms of the Divine Mother and I realized that I always have been, I’ve just not allowed myself to go there and honour that connection to creation. I keep going back to this poem, as a source of comforting.
I shared this at my first women’s yoga class and it fit in perfectly with the vibrations of the room. A gentle reminder to us all that we are so deeply LOVED and to NOT censor yourself. Express it all because you are NOT too much.
HOMECOMING
(AND THE GREAT MOTHER SAID)
Come my child and give me all that you are.
I am not afraid of your strength and darkness, of your fear and pain.
Give me your tears. They will be my rushing rivers and roaring oceans.
Give me your rage. It will erupt into my molten volcanoes and rolling thunder.
Give me your tired spirit. I will lay it to rest in my soft meadows.
Give me your hopes and dreams.
I will plant a field of sunflowers and arch rainbows in the sky.
You are not too much for me. My arms and heart welcome your true fullness.
There is room in my world for all of you, all that you are.
I will cradle you in the boughs of my ancient redwoods
and the valleys of my gentle rolling hills.
My soft winds will sing you lullabies and soothe your burdened heart.
Release your deep pain. You are not alone and you have never been alone.
