We Are She, She Is We

A poem

By Josée LabergePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

They say the best curve a woman can have

Is the upward curve of her smile

But have they met Mother Earth?

Her curves are endless

Stretching on for miles and miles

Within it’s hills

That smile back and forth to each other

To you, to me

Clouds dancing about the sky

Like freckles shine in the sun

Valleys that seems to chase each other

Like children do Rivers and lakes far apart

That somehow connect

The way soulmates always do

The rough of the rocks

The strength of the earth

Ever felt so grounded that you are the world?

She is that

Everyday

Always

With a range of emotions owned with pride

That can be understood by humanity

For we mirror her moods

We mirror her life

For it is also ours

A joy that radiates like sunshine

Waves of sadness that come like rain

Changes of pace and mind

Like the winds blowing in our hair

The peace or fear of the calm before the storm

A rage with force

Like oceans crashing upon its shores

The trembling of uncertainty

That shakes us like earthquakes

The outbursts of frustration

That shoot out like lightning

That echo like thunder

We are she and she is we

She is deserving of all our compassion

Because she already gives us hers

Everyday

We are she and she is we
