trickling fountain
loud in the silent air --
labyrinth room
with moontime flow
I enter the labyrinth
the ancient seven circuits
honouring the Divine Feminine
I round the turns called
the breasts of the Goddess
spiraling
I go to the centre
and back again
I am a 21st century woman
yet this labyrinth stirs
an ancient response
many before me have walked this path
footsteps
theirs and mine
too soon
the labyrinth ends
the world beyond
awaits

I like this Debra. I can 'feel' your journey on the path. And yes, we always have to return to the 'world beyond'. But the journey can be so good.
Simply beautiful.

Debra, I love this, you know I had never thought about labyrinths before, but you have reeled me in, I love Riverdale. have a great day.
I love the idea of you being somewhere else while walking the labyrinth. Which you very probably were. ;)
Indoor labyrinth! Why hadn't I thought of this before? Just a wee bit slow I guess.
Nice.

This is a wonderful piece, Debra, with its mystical connection to the past, and its light leading into the future! A poem of hope and renewal..just lovely!
