The Guardian Angel

When you have been bathed in scented water, when your limbs have been caressed by sweet oils and your hair combed with sandalwood, there will be no time for tears. We enter the world alone and in blood and leave the same way, we are born with whirlwinds forest fires and comets inside us, we are born able to sing to birds and read clouds and see our destiny in grains of sand and I'll become one with Gaia, the Earth goddess mother. You cannot be a beacon of hope when you have darkness in your heart.
