Listening

 to the welcomed rain

 my heart rejoices

Remembering

 how we celebrated the “three day rains”

which provided us with a great relief

from the seeding and often from the bank.

Now,  I watch

the rain droplets form

 diamond-sparkling spider webs on the screen.

I give thanks for a shelter from the rain,

and Spirit’s sweet fire within to warm my dream time.

Father’s Day following so close to your passing is painful.

I am grateful for the support of friends and loved ones.

I hate missing you this much.

Walking in the forest

 There are wondrous things to behold.

Precious things “squirreled” away in the stump of a tree.

Creepy crawling things to fascinate you and me.

I love the coolness and the peace of the woods.

I would stay here forever.

In my mind, I do and could.

Take a Moment;

Give thanks for my Blessings

I get on Soul’s knee’s.

Preparing for the adventure

That is coming my Way.

Counsellor to Admitting nurse:    What do you have for me today?

Nurse:                                                                Classic case of delusions of grandeur.  This one calls himself God.

Counsellor                                                       Oh great, just what I need on a busy Monday morning….an addict alcholic who thinks he is God.

Nurse:                                                                  It is worse than that….he knows he is.

Counsellor:                                                      Let me at him…..after coffee.

 

 

 

Counsellor to well groomed man in blue jeans and bush/bike attire.

C:     Well there certainly isn’t much information on your file here.  Would you pleasew answer these questions for me….so I can fill in the blanks.

GOD:                               Certainly

Counsellor:     What is your real name.  Would you spell it for me please?

GOD:      God.    G   O  D

You can call me GEE   you know like in Gee Whiz or GOD.

Counsellor: Where do you live

GOD:    Everywhere

Counsellor:   What do you do for a living

GOD: I love

Counsellor:  What do you love

GOD:    All that I created

Counsellor:  Everything

Counsellor: You expect me to believe that you are God when you are being admitted to a rehab centre for alchol and drug abuse.

GOD:  Yes that is right.

Counsellor:  How long have you been drinking and using drugs

GOD:  A couple of hundred years

Counsellor:   Why did you start to abuse yourself like thisÉ

GOD:   My children forgot me”   They destroyed each other.  They were destroying MOther Earth and since I could not help them find me…I thought I would come to where they are really searching for me.  In order to fit in I drank and I used drugs but it did not work for me anymore and my universe was becoming unmanageable. 

Counsellor:  Oh, my God

GOD:  Yes

Counsellor:  I mean, er, do really think you are going to convince me or anyone here that ONE  you do exist TWO YOU ARE REAL

THREE that you have drinking and drug problem.

GOD:   How would you explain what is happpening on the streets today if God were as you say alive, well and real     I am alive.  I am real.  But I am not well.

Counsellor:   How are you not well

GOD:  I am lonely, depressed and tired of being not listed to.

Counsellor:  What, do you mean, you actually talk to people when you are being Rod, er, when you are yourself

GOD:   Yes, I talk in thunder, in the voice of your friends.  I am heard in the silence of the sweatlodge and in the heart beat of the drum.  My voice is best heard in the way your beloved speaks your name.

Counsellor:   Do you have any friends or family we can contact in case of an emergency

GOD:   Yes, the animals….the plants…..the rocks and starts.  They have not forgetten me.   They carry my voice.  The four legged ones, the winged ones, they know me    They know my name   THey serve me The tried to teach my children but since it was not on a cell phone, the internet or on their PDA or ipod no one paid attention.

By the time I got to realize

By the time I opened my eyes

I only thought to get my ducks in a row

They had grown into to horses with riders.

So on Soul’s knees I surrender.

Turn it over to remember.

When I let things get out of control

I can turn ducks into horses.

Today

img_0259Today I stand alone.

You are gone more than a year.

You have taught me a great deal from afar.

Thanks Mother for being my bright and shining star.

Bright as chickens

peeping under hatching lights.

Vibrant as Dream catchers

glistening in the sun.

Remembrances and embraces

Our hearts dancing as one.

Katimavik  leaving

after months of intense service…

The joy they brought our Elder’s here.

Their energy and questions of life

 oozing out of every pour.

Their kind listenings and understandings

of the pain that aging brings

Enhanced our days

and now  their praises

we in memories sing.

Remembrances and embraces

Our hearts dancing as one.
