Love to pour
for Margaret, gone but never forgotten
By Shauna DougallPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read

# Love to pour
A cup in hand and love to pour
Easy laughter
and coaxing the same out of our throats like wind chimes
Hours
not spent like currency but
Given like a gift
Among the leaves, in the open air
Free friends
Arms like an owl’s
Hugs with wingspan,
And wise wings beating like a heart
Feather entrapped warmth
with a Mother’s encompassing enclosure
To Make, Create, Curate a life
In thread and cloth
Ushering from soil and leaf vein
Grandmother, mother,
our sister in mother earth
And generous participator in her cyclic gifts
Generations of flesh
It takes the deepest soul love
And gives it back too
We are blessed to share these days
We make this world
And give each other pieces of god
