Spirit Body

This is my divine dance.
A deep and profound
belly offering,
plaited, round and soft.
I am the shimmy and sway
of the white birch leaves
burning in the fall,
the twist and undulations
of swollen rivers and streams.
I am the terrible tremor
of the earthquake.
I am the furious spinning tornado,
and the gentle flow and ebb of the tide.
I am eternal birth and death,
serpent wisdom,
mystery and grace.
Spirit in the body.
