Across The River ~*Marge Tindal*~ Among the legends of the people harken voices from the past Kitchi Manitou is speaking through the Spirits come at last Across the glow of moonlit night owl calls out to wolf in hoot Wolf in howl echoes to mate Come we all in sounds relate Round the campfire burning low Spirits gather in-the-know Eagle circles, swoop on wing gathering - gathering - gathering Father Spirit stirs the ash Fire leaps in times recall Peace will come when Spirits gather One in Spirit - One in all Seek you now to gather Peace is close at hand We will walk across the river into the promised land It will be - as it was intended Where brothers and sisters of all creed will be gathered in peaceful assembly O' Father Spirit hear our need Music - Across The River ~shewhowaves~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

very imaginitive and descripitive. I love the following lines. ____________________ owl calls out to wolf in hoot Wolf in howl echoes to mate Come we all in sounds relate ________________________ Ronil (One becomes god only when they have fully understood the role of being a human being.) |

Marge, Though I did not hear any music on my end...I do like the natural Native American tempo (One in Spirit) of your writting. What an honor to gather one day 'round the campfire with the Ancients prior to passing over to the other side... Bob <>< |
