Sacred Space

There is a sacred space
So nurturing and warm
There is a sacred space
Where Breath gave you your form

Within this sacred space
Your heart beat strong and true
Within this sacred space
You ate, and swam, and grew

Within this sacred space
You sensed, and listen’d, and learned
Within this sacred space
You played, and tossed, and turned

There is a sacred space
Just like a safe cocoon
This sacred space of course
Is called you mother’s womb
