Can I take you on a journey?
we, insignificant specks upon the scorching sands
watch the bald eagle, ascend
the mighty, capturing the wind in his wings
as he soars towards the drifting clouds
listen
the drums resound across softened dunes
and the darkened night is broken
by the burst of peach that breaks the morning light
watch
feathered wild grass against the dusted rocks
dancing with the breath that circles from above
release our animal spirit to the depth of watery caverns
quenching thirsts from waterfalls
as eagles soar
hear them cry
the cry of ancestors
across the plains, who hold dream catchers
in their hand
let the desert winds softly blow
lifting grains of past to future
as cries grow louder, arms held high
towards the sun
cherishing the earth
and the drum beats slow, rhythmically
the chanting heard, the spirits felt
the world is calm, for some
as the giant eagle soars
