I know the mother grief on a personal level too . I had babies who’s spark in this world was short and now my beloved son Harry has died suddenly and unexpectedly. This collective grief on top of my personal situation is unraveling me. The winds and tides are strong and I cannot see my way. I just feel, cry and trust to the process. I am no longer me. I am other. A work in progress trying to hold the light, as so many women are bravely doing across the world.

I am so profoundly sorry for your loss Anna. May you be held by visitors of deep care and compassion, of hope and heart-holding and homecoming during this time of such strong winds and tides. I send my love to you.

Your poem, The Guesthouse reference, mothergrief... I picture these as concentric circles in a calm lake that make contact with and mix with my own concentric circles. It's heartening to be out in the depths with a likeminded soul <3 Thank you for sharing with us!

I feel distinctly blessed to be in this rosary chain of circles with you Kat. I'm grateful for all the beauty you bring to this world in your poetry, your understanding, your words. X
