A Blessing for A Baby Coming Into This World

Like the joy of the sea coming home to shore,
May the relief of laughter rinse through your soul.

A Blessing for A Baby Coming Into This World

"Dear, dear tiny being before you are fully human,
remember the ether from which you came.
Hearken to that terrible squeeze
between the womb and the world,
that journey you willed and that willed you.

Then live your wild human time dancing
and grounded in the grand."

Read on for the rest of a lovely poem written by poet gardener, Susan Kornfeld, to a bless a new baby on her way into this world. { read more }
