Rebirth

Rebirth

A Poem by Michiko

Rebirth

The gentle soothing voices  are
whispering in my ear.
"All is well.
Let go of the past
and embrace the future".

The voice whispers
"Reach for the light,
embrace it.
Embrace your path.
Embrace who you are".

"The spirit burns brightly
and radiates out.
You are becoming one
with the ancient spirits.
They will guide you".

"Listen with an open heart,
mind and spirit.
Walk your path with
the ancient ones.
You are coming
full circle
within yourself".

The hands of the spirits
gently caress my hair,
like a child being
comforted by
her mother,
so loving and gentle.

The ancient hands
fill my heart with love and
finally the peace
I have so long
been searching for.

The old me
full of confusion, heartache,
disappointment
slowly washing away
like the water fall
cleansing the earth.

Like the Phoenix
rising up from the ashes,
my spirit is new,
the rebirth of my soul.

The ancient voice whispers,
"Trust in yourself,
your spirit.
Love yourself and
finally accept who
you are."

This poem made me feel warm. I like how you described the spirit. It one of those poems I would read in the winter time when it's really chilly. Maybe this a way to save some money on the energy bill in the winter.

Beautifully spiritual poem. it is touching and well written,
what I like most is the sincerety and smooth simplicity,
what I like least, the mistype in line 6 whispers*
and the cliche use of wording/imagery. the poem is soft and spoken gently.
And captures a spiritual need, I really enjoyed reading this.

Visual and lovely.

"You are coming
full circle
within yourself"
Shows true of an inner rebirth.

"like a child being
comforted by
her mother, "
Brings us back to that time when we where vunerable but had trust, before we knew of pain and bitterness.


Love yourself and
finally accept who
you are."
So simple but empowering.


A beautiful raw journey to rebirth. Very nice, I was personally touched.
