The parental womb: A poem 

Windswept by air, fire and earth 

Love may be commotion, yet is mirth 

A wee fistful can be a large universe 

Calligraphed destiny is never adverse 

Blood meanders unlost in a diverse ocean 

It is a delicate flow that never fails unison 

I can assert that we were no stowaways 

in the parental womb that makes everyday 

There is no wool in the almighty’s gene pool 

These lessons can’t be rewritten in any school 

Yes, love may bring some pain and hurt 

But it is a perennially worn skin and shirt 

Dad and Mum were lovingly, delicately chosen 

By God’s handiwork so carefully woven 

So, we must never fail to remember 

God willed us to be thrown together

Hi, I am Monte Cyril Rodrigues and live in Melbourne, Australia. I am a retired journalist. I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia. I've had voices and visions all my life. I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
