‘Eli‘eli Kau Mai

Where there is silence and arches of light
Where every where you look there is creation
When there is heat that cracks the bones and restructures the DNA
When the voice of a young woman reminds you that the atoms in your body are not new, that they have cycled over and over again throughout time and space
‘Āina met over and over again throughout the ages
That everything around us in an old friend
When the steam of the Goddess tells you to remember union first with you then with all
When constellations shine brighter just so you can come home to yourself again
Remember
There is land under your feet that hold the footprints of those who came before you
There is wind that once carried the songs of the Grandmothers whose love still protects you
There are prayers that you already have uttered that will come back around and hold you
There are people who will do the same
Go there beloved, rest because you have made it to today and through all you have survived
Bring peace to your memories
Settle your heart
And be
