A Thanksgiving Blessing to Share

Especially at the holidays, if I am asked to offer a blessing before a special meal, I feel called to share these words from the person of the Divine Mother I called Gaia in my poetry.

As we give gratitude for the bounty of our tables, may we also say a prayer for those who have suffered great loss of home, family, cherished animals. In these episodes of heartbreak, I do believe the veil between our worlds thins. May we all live long enough to see the Here and Over There come together in days of peace & joy.

Love & blessings from my heart to yours, Cheryl (Listen to the audio recording)

Gaia’s Blessing

May our Home always be

the sanctuary to which you return

after every earthly sojourn.

May you carry a Garden frame of mind

and heart to any world that calls to you.

May you cherish all living things

as elements of your True Self.

May you always know the peace

of ineffable Love and Joy

that are the Garden’s pure delights

and gifts of perfect healing for all time.

May you feel the gratitude

of spirit beings and earthly ones

who recognize there is a bridge

between the Here and Over There.

And may you live to see the day

when the veil between our worlds

dissolves.
