Where'd You Go H2O
Kelly McManus Jun 2021
Water is dwindling
and there's nothing they can do
dance medicine man
shake a rattle
beat your drum
chant at the fire
and make the rains come
cry to fill the clouds
that are passing by
dry in the sky
as your moccasins move
to the beat that you make
a great spirit
is what it will take
to raise the rivers
and fill the lakes
