Mother’s Blessing

‘Round and ’round
Mother’s blessing goes ’round,
‘Round the world, around, around.
‘Round and ’round,
Mother’s blessing goes ’round,
‘Round the world, around.
Twisting strands of love and union
Into Life, eternal blessed.
Mother’s hand is on the spindle
Turning us to peace and rest

Looking forward to our Mother/Daughter Retreat on March 20 where we will be spinning sheep’s wool. Debra learned this song from Laurel Green at summer camp. The repetitious use of “round” mimics the whir of a treadle-powered spinning wheel. Thinking of “Mother” as Divinity bringing us together, makes this song an appropriate passage to use during Meditation for Mothers. More information here.
