The Land’s Wisdom
in the storm the wind does not rest
it brings the new air
when rain comes the earth is cleaned
the earth that was plowed is left scarred
the barren winter gives birth to dead leaves
when the young deer run in the prairie – the wolf sits patiently
only when the night recedes, dawn can break through
then you can see
the shining in the mildew that contains the loves of once upon a time

Now, let us sit and discuss
let each bring forth our offering for change
our offering for ex-change
let us sit…
we will wait for the next movement
and be glad when it comes
the abyss observes us as we sit here
the land is beneath us
the future in front
let us sit and discuss and be with all that is here till the sun is revealed once more…
