Moist Mother

Weaving of Moon times, waxing, growing

Sowing, seedtime, earth sprite germinates

Earth sprite germinates in the womb

Of the Moist Mother

Creeks in canyons, deep, running

Rushing, tumbling, meets the river’s deep roar

She slices her path, weaves like a serpent

Banks damned, rushes, overflow

A new passage of rites

Earth sprite germinates, earth sprite germinates

Earth sprite germinates in the womb

Of the Moist Mother

Weaving of moon times, waxing, growing

Sowing, seedtimes, earth sprite germinates

Earth sprite germinates in the womb

Of the Moist Mother

Earth sprite germinates, earth sprite germinates

Earth sprite germinates in the womb

Of the Moist Mother
