We Dance

 

We dance for the universe

to hear our prayers

to bring us healing

and self empowerment

to ourselves.

 

The colors and bells

mingle to create

a cleansing

and energizing aura

as the drums emphasize

the songs story.

 

it may look like fancy twirls,

fluffy feathers and colorful beads.

In the midst of it all,

the dances we do

have a purpose.

 

We are retelling

our sacred stories with you.

The screaming you hear

is in a language that is fading.

It is time itself resurfacing

to tell you what history left out
