Mary de La Valette – The Sacred Hoop
I am the dinosaur
And I am
The buffalo.
I am
The plants and the trees
and the flowers.
The dust of my ancestors
Is in my bones
The Earthblood flows
Through me.
The Earth gives.
The Earth receives.
I grow out of the dust
Of all the bodies
Of my ancestors.
They nourish me
And give me life.
In the Great Circle
They are
All my relations.
