A love note

A love note:

To all living beings—other than human and human

To our collective family

Our collective existence

I turned to the south

You will rise from the ashes

And to the east

A new day is dawning

The north said

Rise up and fight

And to the west

Find joy and rest to continue

You will rise from the ashes

A new day is dawning

Rise up and fight

Find joy and rest to continue

Connect with the Ancient Ones

The Ancient Mothers

Cosmic Mother

Mother Earth

Connect with the ancient water in the rain drops

The ancient roots of the trees

The ancient mycelium network beneath the surface that connects all living things

The spirits of the ancient stars, microbes, mountains, trees, rivers

That course through you

Before you were born you were pure energy

Before you were born you were moss that covered the earth

Rise up and fight

Find joy and rest to continue

You will rise from the ashes

A new day is dawning
