Moon
Come with me.. And rest awhile.. Relax and get comfortable.. As you Dream by the fire.
Now Listen with your Heart as I paint images in the Air.. Of long ago when People Truly Cared.. About the Earth.. The Wind.. The Sea.. About the Creatures.. And Everything that Be.
They Spoke with the Spirits.. The Ancestors throughout Time.. They interpreted the Omens.. And Acknowledged All Auspicious Signs.
They Celebrated Their Sacred Companionship with the Divine.. With Music.. Singing.. Dancing.. Artistic Offerings.. And Speaking in Rhyme.
Come Journey with me now.. To places you may know.. Where the Storyteller weaves the Magic from oh so long ago.
