This was such a beautiful invocation of the Imbolc turning. Reading it reminded me of the sentiment behind the phrase, "when you were a mere twinkle in your mother's eye".

This is excellent. I like the lines about:

"A good traveler leaves no trace

But I am the the tracks"

Also, I love that collage image - thanks for sharing.

soo beautiful 'I will long for a mother and a home and the safety of a nest

Not knowing that the whole thing is me

That the seed and the yolk, the temporary housing, the silently held hunger

Are all just a film across our eyes' ah yes, the film also the line about the soles of their feet made me cry
