 ~REFLECTING MOMENTS~

An Understanding  





I have seen the auras
of men and women

I am that sister
of earth
that brother

I was once a hunter
and that chain of hunted

That living creature

I am that mother
of a child

I was once a warrior

I loved
with every fiber
of my being

I am that someone
whom was loved
by many

I cling to an understanding
like my thinning blood

I listen

I channel

Answer me sacred spirit

I plea to these mortals
to no avail

These humans
they do not understand
our ways and the warnings

Each of us
is a vital thread
in part of this grand tapestry

I dreamt of an old chimera
an old soul
and that soul
was I

I was a deer
I ate what grew
of this ancient soil
I harmed no one

I too became mans meal
he killed me clean
without my suffering

I am numb and obedient

I have found error
in mans ways

I have found goodness
in less

Another earth I dwell
with men and women
their children too

We share in common
this peaceful existence

No fear
no death

The meadows are splendid
with bountiful food
no one suffers

I now roam with buffalo
and the other mighty beasts

There too
our ancestors
we all blend free
