Midwifery Meditations

To birth is to bring forth life.

Attendant to the birth kneels a midwife

Devoted to celebrating life, woman, family and child.

A companion, guide, honoring the journey of woman.

Woman creating, grieving, discovering, growing.

Midwifery is a spiritual journey,

Kneeling at the feet of women,

Honoring creation,

Serving womankind, mankind,

Serving the creator.

Honoring the mystery.

Who is called to the task?

Faceless, nameless, Let me serve you.
