Photography by @emmabilmes 🌼☺️🙌🏼thank you for shooting your muses in our element and then some.

I saw a spark in your eye

Brought me feeling

Fed my mind

I picked up all that weight

Genetic baggage- now let it lay

Postpone the talk of static news

It’s in your presence to see your truth

Thirty three wraps of sun dance

From womb I ate every breath like chance

From trauma to twin towers, global change climate now ticking clocks

To set back world three hours

Three - I see you

Mimicking patterns

Pay attention now, magic only happens in the witching hours.

I’ll step ahead steady

Open Heart when I’m ready

Open Mind with mindful tact

Be the change, Heartfelt acts

surrounded by culture, traditions possibilities and solution missions

I write on and reaching out,

With wings spread wide

Hands in the sea

Toes in the earth

Virtue in all I seek🤍

-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—

✨🤍✨

Celebrating the perseverance of 33 years.
