Hawk says diamonds danced on air Hawk says creator above put them there Hawk says Redtail is now my name and from Wakiyan is where I came From Thunderbeings, from the rock and the tree, he gave me these wings and then set me free Through eyes of split gold shining so bright And what I see now? No joy just fright Shoot at it now, in the tree over there, is song I hear most when not in the air And when my heart breaks and I fly no more I return to Creator and knock on his door Creator says "Hawk come to me fore you were my best that's why I made you soar You tried to show them but they couldn't see fore they saw the diamonds instead of thee Now you go and tell them what I said to say their turn will come just as yours has this day And when they come stand and look me in the eye I will tell them the whens and the whys that it wasn't Hawk race that I choose let die. It was the human that I chose let go A selfish race that could never say no Starving and hungry they let their own grow No Sacred heart has been brought forth to thee I gave them everything yet they turned from me Diamonds, gold, others, shine so bright but I am Creator I bring you the light Remember just once these words you might save Spirit not diamonds you take to your grave |

LadyHawk~ The spirit of ~Hawk~ envelopes you quite naturally. Great words of much wisdom. The Creator shows us that our ways will bring us to His judgement. Will we be lacking ? Reaching for the spirit within will bring us home to Him. Beautifully done. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
