The Clan Bake
we came to the clan bake
a harvest of sorts
opening our shells
and sharing our hearts
so often we’re enclosed
in a tight shell of protection
privately dealing with
our life’s interjections
then the opportunity comes
to open up and share
what is spoken from our hearts
is now out there
to celebrate
integrate
commiserate
and orchestrate
as a symphony of love
