I've never read that poem of Carol Lynn's, but so glad you included it!! It's absolutely tragic, but gorgeous. It's so representative of that deep wound that men can't seem to see and their failure to understand why women continue to ask: Is there no balm in Gilead? I'll miss Carol Lynn Pearson's soothing balm, it was truly healing.

She wrote an entire book about a Motherless House but could never get it published....I am reading about that in her diaries right now. TRAGIC! COWARDS! So many publishers wanted to but were cowards even tho

ugh they loved it.

Oh how sad and discouraging. I’ll have to put her diaries on my reading list that gets longer each day!

So appropriate Cynthia that you include a poem by our dear Carol Lynn Pearson who just left her mark here on earth as she moved on. I love her book about Mothers, and all the others she has written that speaks for women. Thanks for sharing the views of others in our world. I love my connection to ALSSI. Toni Ogden

I wrote this the day before I learned she died so it feels extra special now!

The scriptures talk about looking forward to when the lost ten tribes return and how happy everyone will be when they bring the writings of their prophets.

I wonder, now, if they'd consider having the same joy at the return of women prophets and truth about the feminine divine?
