I Am Here

I Am Here When you wish upon a star; You are given love from afar. From the place where our peoples reside; Star Peoples , we never denied. When you wish upon the moon; Those that were gone all too soon. Awaken to hear your voice; Keeping watch, by their choice. When you wish upon the sky; Ancestors will realize. That you send up smoke and prayers; Acknowledging, they are still there. When you wish upon the Spirit World; Whether you be man, woman, boy, or girl. Great Spirit answers your song; "I am here my child, you are not alone." Darlene Doll Smith
