Buffalo Kisses
While on our recent journey through the Olympic Game Farm, I felt most fortunate and so very grateful to receive a most amazing gift from an animal that I highly regard as sacred…a Buffalo Kiss!
Buffalo Kisses belongs to the following groups:
Masterpieces: Literary Workshop, Spirit of the Native American and WMGDreams of bison roaming earths plains
thoughts of a pet, I must always refrain
A ton of beauty in dark fur and large horns
their treatment in the past, makes my heart torn
Sacred to my ancestors, even more so with me
to be amongst them so close, is where I want to be
Synchronistic journey, we drive among them free
through the window of our jeep, soon one is close to see
Reaching for some bread, I feel the warmth of her breath
soon thereafter a tongue licks from neck to temples breadth
The joy and blessing of the abundance and a buffalo’s kiss
sealed prayers being heard from Spirit, a feeling of bliss
A heartfelt opening of our hearts and minds to receive
and release all fears of lack and scarcity, once believed
Truly grateful to this beast, whose gentleness thrives
despite human efforts to eliminate their sense to survive
This moment in time, I shall remember as long as I live
the Chief of all animals, whose kissing gift leads to GIVE.

My Special Kiss.
.
My cat did give birth and to 4 lives she gave
but one little girl was heading for the grave.
So quickly I thought, and a life I did give
for ‘twas mouth to mouth that I gave, as she wanted to live.
....Today she is 19 years old…..

When the knowledge exists in the body,
Makes us speak,
Makes us share to see,
Hearts, growing day by day…
When the memories recall our mistakes,
Enjoyable moments when we look back,
Time to talk to ourself with a smile..
Heart talks, tells..
When we are full of emotion,
We have the key
Making us open each door,
Without knocking; to say;
Its me…
This is life,
THis is a journey..
This is NOTHING..
But beautiful to learn,
Share what we have…
For us;
IT is easy to know eachother,
For us;
It is easy to realize behind the “cold” walls,
Easy is just a term,
That we worked hard to reach,
To know, what it means;
In the reality..
This is KEY.
Dedicated for Wonderful Sister Tammy.

Bison are indeed an awesome creature. I have seen very few in my travels and feel blessed to have seen them.
