Dawn Breaks Over a Reddened Earth by Amanda L MarronI trek to the Motherland
Calling all people!
Gram of bee pollen sprinkled on my silver sage face
I'm pressing my knees to the Sonora Desert Ground
Everything is in Divine order
I rise to my feet
An irreplaceable soul
Stands with me this twilight
I gaze into her bejeweled eyes
Bestowing upon me, love and open arms
And a shoulder upon which to cry
Beholder of Stones!
Turquoise, Lapis lazuli, and coral reflect in the night silence
I re-write history from Her words,
An instigation, we invite change
Justified by our Hope
We travel along the footprints of those who came before
Guiding us on our way
Pure spirits eloping
Escaping this greedy domain for a finer existence

Posted by Michelle Angelini on 11/12/05 at 03:40 AM I love the mythic references and the colors expressed here. Both you and Anihe did a wonderful job collaborating. Maybe you should try another one - I'd love to see it.
