Chrysalis 

Water

 Throat

 Heart

 Root

 

I am surprised to hear my voice

so bold and sure of it’s self

as if it weren’t my own

 

and for a second there

I have to wonder.

 

I listen again,

 

There is a distant sound

of harmony and balance,

they are bleeding together

the masculine with the feminine

 

It is a song

A chant

 

It is spilling out over my lips

 

But I do not sing?

I never chant?

 

Water

 Throat

 Heart

 Root

 

Again, I am surprised by my voice,

as if I’d never heard it before

 

Like a child learning to speak

I am trying out vowels

Tasting consonants

Curling my tongue

Swaying my words

and cooing till song appears

 

It is dripping like water from my throat

My heart

My root

 

I am rolling out my wings

Moving decisively forward

Spontaneous and fully aware

 

I am full of compassion

Ready to except any change in situation

 

I am

I'm singing

I am aligning my heart with my throat

 

Bold sounds are falling from my teeth

My body is strengthening

My blood moving

I am linking arms

Hugging in my shoulders

till there are no more lines to blend

 

Water

 Throat

 Heart

 Root

 

I will kiss them all

Lick there tears

There salt my sustenance

Until all that is left is

clear communication

A complete transformation
