rebirth in the cove
an ode to uranus (freedom) in taurus (earth and body) (for me). free to be safe. free in my body and with my people. free among the wildflowers. 2018-2025
In the nook of the cove on the lake, I returned home to me.
My prodigal soul in safe keeping -
You delighted in my return.
You adorned my crown with constellations.
You fed me fish and cedars.
You clothed me in rainbows and moonbeams.
You conducted an orchestra of frogs, crickets, and owls.
You invited fireflies, hummingbirds and herron to the gala.
You prepared a bed of soft waves, rainbows, and clouds - a refuge from the journey.
You decorated my house with sunrises and sunsets - signaling: life goes on.
You showed me in every way, during those months - I am chosen. I am valued.
Welcome home. (Melissa Crim, 2022)
