Do not erase the mother
From which we all are born;
She is the cup that nurtures us.
She is the womb that carries us.
She is the strength that sustains us.
Do not censor her,
Do not shun her;
To do this is to censor and shame your own birth,
To take the life-giving sustenance from your own lips.
Embrace the mother;
Let her be free to feed her children;
Let her be free to nurture the world.
Let her be free to teach us
Do not erase the mother
