cedar strength
ancestors hugged strength
extracts penetrated veins
woody breast o p e n e d
incense smoke twirls truth
plans beaming across green boughs
resin rooted s.w.e.a.t.s
prayers and blessings
protect tree of life steady
energies v i b r a t e
ceremonies sound
strong deep drums beating time bold
air fire water
eyes fraternal l a u g h
circling tree smiling joyous
I dance smelling e_a_r_t_h
