Simon Ortiz – Nov 25, Thanksgiving Gratitude All Levels
Happy Thanksgiving - this piece says it all.
The Dreamer's Song
Yes, the morning sun.
Yes, the land all around.
Yes, the people with us.
Yes, the dreaming dream.
With song, the blood runs strong.
With song, the eyes see clear.
With song, the heart is full.
With song, the spirit does dream.
For we cannot be denied.
For we will not be held down.
For we shall not turn away.
For we must not quiet the dream.
The dream is the sun and the people.
The dream is the song and the spirit.
The dream is always "we are everyone.”
The dream is always the dreamer.
