Whispering wombs of our mothers

where we once swam in amniotic fluid

life force like no others

 

Guided by the lined hands of grandmothers

wizened and sharp as a druid

Whispering wombs of our mothers

 

Their love unconditional buffers

elixir of life flows liquid

life force like no others

 

Adding brilliant colors

Never muted and cold

Whispering wombs of our mothers

 

Hear their cries for our lost brothers

their pained hearts lucid

life force like no others

 

Always the first to recover

women are better suited

whispering wombs of our mothers

life force like no others
