In the company of women


In this amazing group
Of women meeting each other
For the first time this weekend
We found amazing strength
And surprising vulnerability.

In the quiet of the night
Listening to the fire burn,
Hearing stories and thoughts shared
Each speaking to amazing strength
And we shared compassion and support.

The backgrounds diverse
The ages both young and old
And yet if you looked closely
The young were old beyond their years,
The old young despite their years.

In true collective feminine wisdom
All were wise with lessons learned
And personal strength forged through
Challenges from this game called life
Resulting in an inner core of steel.

And along with the practice
We’ve wobbled, we’ve stretched
We’ve grown, we’ve found our physical strength
We’ve found our inner strength
And forged friendships for a lifetime.
