Mother's Blessing

In the center, flesh at her heart red rivers flow, moss feet, soft as wildflower fields grow canyons crayoned stenciled against mist and twilight sky eyes, clouds pass through mountains of moonlight, Mother bless me tonight. This poem is for the earth who is Mother to us all, and for my Mother, how I miss her today.

What a lovely personification of the mother of mothers, Anna. Thanks for your suggestion "trapped" instead of confined. I have changed it,
