with our legs so long
and our hearts on fire
reciting poetry under our breath
beautiful luminous verses
lighting the paths we gracefully walk
moccasins hug our feet
while we dance amongst the trees so tall
arms outstretched to the sky
feathers n' flowers in our hair
as we commune with mother nature
confiding our secrets to her
feeling the freedom in our hearts soar
we swirl and whirl
we spin and sing
those beautiful words loudly
that were for so long stifled
beneath our sometimes held breath
and our stories set us free...
