Dirt

Self-care is a woman who makes space for life to happen

My hands have been in the dirt

Trying to help nature make food

Food that I tell myself I grew with my own labor

Laboring with these hands-on mine connects me to the earth

The earth is my mother the giver and the healer.

Healing come with a clarity of mind to think clear thoughts

Clear thoughts run true to gut as if God speaks to me when my hands are in the dirt.

(It’s no wonder the ancients have told us to how to live with dirt: One one duttie build dam”)

Please note: I took a much-needed break. Thanks for reading.
