i was visited by a playful otter
swimming and floating on her back,
a river otter
she is a mother, and
as she floats on her back
her children crawl on her belly
for a ride,
until one by one
they dive off her belly and
into the river
playing amongst themselves
she cracks food on the rock
on her belly, her sacral chakra
my sacral chakra
is well defended
my wounds are there
and heavily protected
she visits me
reminding me
of the playful side of life
the otter-ness
that needs no defense
may the playful, nurturing,
feminine, watery energy
of the otter in the water
remain with me always
Otter in the water
