Skunk Medicine

Last night I went downstairs to get a glass of wine after finishing my presentation for this evening. There, on the deck, calmly eating the cat food, was a big black and white skunk. "Hmm," I thought to myself, "In the Medicine Cards, skunk represents attract what you need in order to grow."

My littlest kitten ran out, sniffed noses with my new friend, and promptly was greeted with a ripe behind, tail a twitching. While she didn't get sprayed, the smell has been lingering over the back deck.

I breathe deep, imagining PePe le Pew in all of his romantic conquests, wondering what will happen next...

Seedling


I am deeply curled within
The seed of my possibilities
The waters make me tender
As I establish my roots
I trust the light of the sun
Even as I push through this darkness
To greet my unfolding self.

Double Roses


My heart is in my throat
And in my heart is a rose
It's roots go through my solar plexus
All the way down my toes...

It goes past my vision
Reaching for the sun
A double rose blooms
Now just as one...
