Grandmother Place!


Into the forest dark I travel,to a place my heart holds sacred,here the grandmothers whisper,here I come for guidance.
Warm green and shadow dappled,alive with sounds of Mother Earths small children,here a place old as time,a place of ceremony.
Softly the ancients embrace me,renew the Circle that is waiting,take up the stones that are laid out,to the water for washing.
With loving heart replace them,prayers said and tobacco offered,sprinkle all with corn pollen,here is life,here is balance,here to is rebirth.
Fire built in the center,earth,fire,wind,and water,this is all life,in the trees above the feathered gather,there is no fear as they share the power.
Sage lit in four corners,show honor to the Four Winds,near by the river chuckles as it travels,quietly into the water seven times say the prayers.
Father Sky,Mother Earth,Four Winds,and Creator,tobacco and corn meal are offered,with humble heart I show respect and honor.
Grandmothers of many days are here,gathered to teach their child,arms lifted,voice raised in song,I offer both heart and mind.
It is time the spirits say,the healing begins today,Mother Earth shakes with hurt,her own children have forgotten all they owe her.
Great Mystery has sent the calling,all who are connected feel it,the pain will stop when you stop fighting,open up accept your duty.
It was told from times beginning walk a straight path or face the changes,now the new world dawns,have you learned the needed wisdom?
The Womans time is upon us,no more will we be disrespected and down trodden,stories warned did you listen,passed from the grandmothers to their children,each lesson held true warning.
Now the stones are set,the Circle has been prepared,drum speaks out softly,the grandmothers wisdom is offered,will you ignore or answer,fate of the world rests on your answers!

blessings granny!
