Echoes Of Wounded Knee

Echoes Of Wounded Knee

A Poem by Healing Star
"

Standing Rock will be the sign post where we turned. To the tune Stand Like A Mountain written for them by Trevor Hall.

"
Ever since I was a Child
I felt her Love all around Me
As I walked out in the Wild
I felt the power of all I'd Be

But I went through a time of Separation
Didn't realize it had slipped away from Me
And I found myself years ago in Desperation
I asked that I might be helped to Clearly See

Don't be afraid to Drink
Of the waters that flow Freely
No longer let your Heart Sink
Go find your Heart among the Trees

There has never been a Time
Like the one that you are Living
Find the Beauty in the Rhyme
Fill yourself with compassion and Forgiving

The Ancestors have Come to Share
Children being sent to raise our Vibration
It's time to know this Love, it's time to Care
One Heart, One Beat, One Nation

They think they have the power to keep us Down
They think what they've done will Work Still
But things have changed my Friend look Around
People are ready to Stand they've had their Fill

The Elders with the knowledge are now Sharing
Kept hidden for a Reason, this Holy Season
All can be cured with this love they are Bearing
It's time to realize that we are the One

Send your prayers up for our Crime
That we will be Forgiven
There has never been a Time
Like the one we are Livin'

All the Children need to come Together
If you are a Creek, flow like a River
Stand now for our Mother
For we can Accept no Other

All the Children need to come Together
If you are a Seed, time to become the Tree
What we do now, will last Forever
Hearts breaking with echoes from Wounded Knee

The Ancestors have Come to Share
Children being sent to raise our Vibration
It's time to know this Love, it's time to Care
One Heart, One Beat, One Nation

There has never been a Time
Like the Time that we are Livin'
Send Prayers to be forgiven our Crime
That we all might be Forgiven

Take a moment to Listen to your Heart
I pray we won't regret this Day
If we don't come together, remain Apart
What to our children will we Say

Help is here for us as never Before
We can change all that is Happening
If we will Open and not close our Door
Look around You, can't you feel the Sting

All the Children need to come Together
If you are a Creek, flow like a River
Stand now for our Mother
For we can Accept no Other

All the Children need to come Together
If you are a Seed, time to become the Tree
What we do now, will last Forever
Hearts breaking with echoes from Wounded Knee

I am a man who has finally realized he needs to write down what matters to him, that I might learn from myself, what is important, what I value. To capture who I am now, for that is all we have is no.. more..
