May you be enveloped by all the care and safety of the universe that you are capable of feeling
the natural amnio-sensuality of it all,
welcomed back into a womb unconditionally loving.

May energy move in and around you with beautiful continuity, ever-flowing, omni-coloured and bright.

May you wear red because you are powerful, not because you wish to feel so;
orange because you know who you are and you like it.

/ This poem was written as a gift of solidarity to a friend also suffering from reproductive disease.
