This is my first ever collaboration on a poem. It is with my good friend, Prince George poet and artist Deborah L. Kelly. It was published in the March issue of the RCLAS ezine.

Earth.
The Mother
remembers Eden.
Please, take her back to her youth.
Earth
Rain
brings reprieve
to foresaken souls
hoping for a healthy quench.
Rain
Blend
the clear blood
heaven’s crystal tears;
synthesis of blood and earth;
merge.
Web
unites all
the four elements
and we are all connected.
Web
Hope
in her heart;
mother of us all.
Forgiveness rests within her.
Hope.
Well penned Stephen Kerr. I appreciate your sharings. Be well always.

This speaks so beautifully as one solid voice entwining both your thoughts and hearts! Incredibly well done! I love how the structure unifies your voices into one. Looking forward to more of your entwined voices Deborah and Stephen – I think you’re really onto something.
