Wagnuka Wihinape

The music in the wind
Natures voice a treasure
From clouds thundering drums
or when the red headed beats a melody
As a lonesome love pines like a wolf’s prayer
with nightway’s healing rhythmic rattle of leaves
An enchanted gift from the cedar bough
To draw lovers closer listening to the breeze
From the ancient airs of peace
Little raindrops from heaven
Like mustangs running free
As the first people still seek
A Love song upon a flute
The fruit of tranquil harmony
Our breath becomes one under the sun
~
