Morning Flutters

With grace I soar

 

Wrists crossed

Palms face me

In front where I can see them

 

They have scooped up the energy I need for today

From the earth

Who for moments

I remember with awe and gratitude

Her generosity

Her very life she gives me

 

These fingers flutter

Like the eagle dancer’s

Tremoring with life

 

Tremor and tremble

And remember

those

Who released shackles of 

Not seeing clearly

 

Who saw and knew some things

Clearly

Respect for the land

Respect for one’s labor

Respect for simplicity

Respect for the body

Respect for releasing through tremoring

Remembering through trembling

 

Life of grace

Flutter and soar me

Remember clearly and see
