Sojourn with me on the river of poetic birth
swift canoe, ready to embark on a journey
paddling fresh waters of deeper thoughts
riding the currents of a changing world
listen for whispers of the ancestral land
through the mystical lens, eyes begin to see
communing with the trees, stars and moon
taking in the wonder of the great unknown
enlightenment in the blue spectrum of life
experiencing a bond within mystical dreams
for in this vast universe, all is connected
leaving imprints, wherever, we traverse
carrying an
ancient medicine bag of herbs
for all shaman must walk alone for a bit
to sing the deeper song of the spiritual self
worn moccasins a testament to the quest
pressing the essence of nouns and verbs
consonants and vowels creating words
through the dark and light places of life
feathering an epic adventure in free verse
drift with me to the land of wildnerness
be brave, trust you inner warrior spirit
surrounded in mystic rings of moonlight
dipping far beneath the rippling surface
wander with me, to a long ago time
where towering cedars sing us a lullaby
wooing weary hearts, to an ancient drum
dawn offers glimpses to the poetry of life
travel with me my poetic friend
let us see what our hearts will pen

DeleteThis medicine song sings to my weary soul. I love the lines about everything being connected and, especially, the stanza about carrying the medicine bag and the worn moccasins. You travel so wisely, my friend.
ReplyDeleteI think we could all use a medicine bag these days.

DeleteTravel light…
Whatever the shortcomings of simpler, more mystical societies, they were certainly healthier for the planet than our hi tech disaster.
ReplyDeleteI think with all the chaos of the modern world, we need to drift to a place of peace, wherever, that is for the traveler.
DeleteWishing you health…
This certainly would be a rewarding journey.
ReplyDeleteI especially like this line:
"riding the currents of a changing world"
