I HAVE BEEN BORN

I have been born:

I have been born in the garden of the creation
where a rose was my mother
where my roots were from a star.

I have learned to walk in the universe,
where the rules were made by existence
where the final judge is death.

I have let myself plant a seed,
in the immensity of love
where a miracle has been born

I have seen life grow vertiginous,
where it remained caught in a second
where the memory of time stalks me

I have been here shining with my own light
where I’m illuminating myself with moon light
here, I’m reminiscencing of my father sun.

I have left a trail like a morning star
where they're orbiting my steps after me
where my descendants go after my universe.

I have been born created in image.
I am a tree of destiny in constant evolution
on my leaves are written pages of my spirit.

I have lasted in the garden of the creation
where in all its essence and all its magnitude
the verb was spoken, calling me a “WOMAN”
