Hear Me
Calling From My Heart
Sweet, sweet Lightning Girl
How I am so stricken
Electrified by your magic
I am crawling, wanting
dance to return to me
I would walk...
make my way to the powwow grounds and sink
Slip silently into yesterday
Let others think...
wonder about the colors that have changed like the borealis
We saw our colors in the skies
Ever-changing as we dared to walk the edges of this earth,
crying wolf in staccato
In repeat I cried
Darling dear, I tried
To make you believe in me
Sweet, sweet Lightning Girl
Magic has returned in a vision
Dreams about our dance
Stars streamed across the sky
as we held each other close
Vows were verified in the holiness
of fire, flames of burning passion
Volumes of crying night creatures
Instigating and lulled
We submitted much too soon
Sweet, sweet Lightning Girl
I know that our nights are dark
The night birds have grown silent
And before the sun sets, let me say...
sweet promises once again
I am warrior, strong yet again
And take water
Wipe the tears from those pretty eyes
Look...look at me and wonder
Test your heart for love
See that I am true
I'm only wanting you
Wanting the sundance to guide our careful hearts
But, there is no such thing as careful
In a world where doves play with ravens
I will take your hand
Make you and the world understand
I have cried, I have soundly lost voice
I have died...inwardly by choice
There is promise
Promise in the sky
I promise
I promise my love to you
Hear me
Calling from my heart

Thank you Tony! I do strive to write more in depth about my Native heritage. I do believe we are all beautiful. But ladies, you are the best.
Peace and love , brother
Tony, it would give me great pleasure. From one poet to another. We can share each other's work. After all, poetry is expression of the soul. Peace and love brother 💯
