All One Breath

©2013 Louise Gallagher

When God was embraced
in the feminine power
of all
one breath
becoming
the possibility of humankind
life knew no direction
but to evolve
through love’s
limitless capacity
to give birth
to beauty.

And in that one
breath
time expanded out
into infinity
and life became real
in time
as man lost his way
through the fear that love
was not enough
to hold onto.

Breathing into fear
memory awakens
to the essential nature
of the truth
of our existence.

Created in Love
we are born
to reflect
the beauty and wonder
of all that we become
when we forget
to be
anything
other than how
we were born
to be
embraced in Love.
