Posted by tgruenhagenfinearts on 26-Sep-00 at 11:14 AM
This is a poem I would love to have put to music, unfortunatley I don't write music. I am a painter, see tgruenhagenfinearts member and my posting on my fine art.

Cycle of Life

The Earth my womb
My lonely cacoon
With spirits of ancestors near.

The wolf and antelope
Watch my path
And guard against my fear.

Tomorrow when a raven flies
My song and dance will show
The path I took while shacked here
Upon a land of snow.

And when my Womb engulf my flesh
I'll join my distant tribe
On wings and hoof
With prayer of hope
For those left here alive---

T.Reyes -1993
