Goddess Poem by Michael Burch

Goddess



"What will you conceive in me? "—
I asked her. But she
only smiled.

"Naked, I bore your child
when the wolf wind howled,
when the cold moon scowled...
naked, and gladly."

"What will become of me? "—
I asked her, as she
absently stroked my hand.

Centuries later, I understand;
she whispered—"I Am."
