The Gift

The Gift
To dream the dreams of the grandmothers
to see the world as it once was
to feel the ways of the others
to feel life like she does

The grandmother came and saw
she felt and knew and gave
the world outside mattered not
faith, she said, be brave

The time has come to open up
and see what must been seen
you know and feel the love given
the faith will wash it clean

Do not fret or worry so
about what will happen then
the faith brings hope and flow
you life will begin again

Honor the earth, she said my child
remember the ones who were
the wolves and hawks and all the wild
honor them with faith, pure

Now is the calling from the stars
the moon who guides your way
take breathes and thoughts and dreams
to heart
for life begins today
