the forest
come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth
come roll in all the riches all around you
and for once never wonder what they’re worth
the rainstorm and the river are my brothers
the heron and the otter are my friends
and we are all connected to each other
in a circle, in a hoop that never ends
how high does the sycamore grow?
if you cut it down, then you’ll never know
and you’ll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
for whether we are white or copper-skinned
we need to sing with all the voices of the mountains
we need to paint with all the colors of the wind
