Morning Prayer On the rise of slope I stand Morning dew greets my lips To the north I face the land On the right I lift my hand Encompassing the rise of sun On the left I lift my hand Full moon sits in my palm All is calm, all is calm. “O Great Father Earth below my feet Sun held in my right hand Moon rests in my left hand For all that you have given This world For your people Know that I thank you.” On the rise of slope I stand Morning dew greets my lips To the north I face the land On the right I lift my hand Encompassing the rise of sun On the left I lift my hand Full moon sits in my palm All is calm, all is calm. Karilea When you want to be loved, look within...KRJ |

Karilea~ He's set the sun in the morning the moon in the night ... and what joy when they are in alignment and all the world is at that calming time. Thanks for sharing these thoughts. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
