Miraculous transformation
of wine or milk
from pitchers of water...

Eclipse 2

...Mother's womb panged to be delivered.
A rift awakened, once asleep in roost,
but 4alarm crowing on steeples of burning roofs,
the foundations gone missing, on sabbatical

I gave him one final push

A Time For Healing
