One
One
We are all one
Red, black, white, yellow
We come from Great Spirit
- the two, four legged
And the winged
All of us need each other to live
our home is mother earth
that sustains us and feeds us
Father sky gives us season, light and dark
cycles of the great moon and bright sun
seasons of life
give thanks for each day a new day
to the water that cleanses us
to the plants, four legged and fish that give their lives
to our brothers and sister
Reawaken yourself each day
look to mother earth an father sky for a new way
thank the ancestors and creator for our birth
think of how you will make this day with love,honesty,and good intentions
consider how your actions will from now on affect the 7th generation
then live your life the best you know how
a prayer by Barb Derick
