prayers are living energy
traveling in time and space
into Creator's heart
we are star memory
star dust light particles
spinning in space
whirling in time....
we are past present future
we are prayer in action
part of the beautiful life circle
we are love we are harmony
we are truth one with all  
and all hidden from view
let our truth shine in our eyes
let freedom in us sing a unity song
may we be children in our hearts
never growing old
dancing in our souls
let yourself go let your song sing let yourself shine
may our children grow as flowers of many colors
let them sing let them pray in their own way
may their lives be a rainbow of hope to all
may they blossom from shadows to the Light

he rolls his wheel chair each day
looking for food others toss away
checking dumpsters for old bottles and cans
a large trash bag in his one good hand
he rolls from town to town always searching
a scraggly dog trots by his side
crossing streets in blazing sun or biting cold
he rolls with the punches sleeps with the moon
a man hit by the hard knocks
still he smiles pats his dog in shade of life's dark side
a smile for others who see him
some who don't
doesn't faze him... he's been them all
still rolling along the wild streets of L.A.
homeless in the richest land of all... America

will you remember me
in your deepest heart
sing for me...
when the moon is full
over frozen tundra our family would hunt
forever running and playing together
loyal to each other
now so few left of the multitude
the pups...who will bring them up?
those who survive harshest winter
will they fall prey to merciless humans....?
why must it be this way...i cannot understand
but in the realms of heaven i roam far...
and see from above
a picture of humanity stains the earth
wolves not the lone victims of their wrath
my soul bleeds for those who lose...
their lives each day and night
from those who walk on two legs  
some have no heart....
and a soul colder than icy snows
biting winds...
blow in those armed with guns
one day will awaken...
in a vision revealed
upon their knees i see them
those heartless humans
begging forgiveness...
from wolves
will we give it...can we...?
forgive... for precious lives so greedily taken
loved ones shown no mercy
at their command
torn to shreds from traps and guns
i howl for them...
i cry for them...
i plead... for them
my family who remain are shorn in two
one half on earth one half above
will we forgive those inhumane ones....?  
our souls are saved theirs are not
in heaven a wilderness is secured for us
humans one day must face their own conscience....
and that burns hotter than any fiery furnace
...in hell
