Snow falls in gentle drifts
blanketing the World
in icy splendor.
Listen to Her rumbling voice,
Powerful and tender,
as through her dreams
she sifts…
“Cradled by a womb of Earth,
I will teach you to Dream True,
Think first,
Choose wisely,
and act with strength…
to Go Within for all answers,
to be a Mother to all,
including yourself..
to Heal through introspection and rebirth!
Feed upon armored wisdom
and the golden sweetness of Life!
Look to the Standing People
in moments of reflection,
danger,
doubt,
or strife.
See me with my child
roaming the nightly skies?
You have but to ask,
and I will most wisely advise.
My robes are plain,
nor is Winter
always my season of Dreaming,
as some may claim.
I may appear to you
Black,
as the star-studded Sky.
Brown,
as the skin of Mother Earth,
or White
as the snow
tucking in all who await
Spring’s rebirth.
Gentle
as a summer breeze.
Powerful
as a winter storm.
Home is where
we’re most at ease
to slumber…
dream deep…
and transform!
I will show you
how to live
in perfect Tao..”
Who Sings Now?
Each singing poem is inspired by a Teacher found in Nature; a star, stone, plant, animal etc that holds Wisdom for those willing to take the time to listen. Can you guess who is singing here?
