New Beginning

Underwater blue staring up through the crystal clear
Sunlight beckons me to the surface for breath
Moving slowly through the water, there is no fear
Calm overtakes my body as I break through
I fill my lungs with air and embrace the sun’s rays

Hope fills my soul and I prepare to make my journey
Little lives that need protecting
I cloak them in my love and guide them to safety
Holding onto the faith of my decisions 
No more second guessing 

Preparing to climb the mountain with my babies on my back	
I feel no weight, there is no burden to carry them
Energy is renewed, it flows through me 
I reach the top and turn full circle
I breath in and look to the sky and I am thankful
