Prayer for Spring

May we reveal our abundance without shame.
may we peel back our sleeping wintry layers...
like snakeskins, like the silk chrysalis...

like clothing cast off during love.
May we unravel with abandon like lover's knots
before knitting ourselves back to the heart.
May we settle into our own rhythms as tides do
within the borders of the moon's calling.
May the music of our soul
be accompanied by grand gestures
and the persistent clapping of hummingbirds wings.
May the milky fingers of the moon
reach down nightly to cherish and unveil us.
May we turn our bodies generously in it's light
like tranquil fish glinting underwater,
like precious stones.
When we open our mouths to sing
may the seasons pause in their long journey
to listen and applaud.
