the way to achieve a dream

the way to achieve a dream
is the the way of the wise mother
who weaves star dust
in the soft cocoon of her womb
until she births the seed of love.
she watches it grow
as she waters it with her tears
"bless you, my child,
your roots are safe in the ground,
your wings are safe in the heavens",
she whispers
while she dreams of forests yet to become.

the way to achieve a dream
is also the way of the hunter father
who speaks the language of trees,
follows the trails of stars
and is faster than the winds.
for he is one with his prey
and never forgets to bow
to the majesty of the prey's warm blood
as it dies and melts into the soil dreams are made of.
"bless us, mother
with the fruit of your womb",
he whispers
while he dreams of skies yet to become.

the way to achieve a dream
is to embody it.
it is your unique path,
and you are already on it.
for the wise mother
and hunter father
are both inside you.
