Wise Woman. .

 

**Wise woman **

I knew a wise woman
And she said to me.
That the river would mold me
And the wild wind would cool
me.That the trickster the coyote
he would fool me.

That father sun would
warm me, mother earth
would clothe me.
Grandmother moon
would greet me and of the
old ways she would teach me.

Wise woman, she told me
to always walk lightly.
Tread the earth ever gently,
lovingly, so preciously.
And take from her sparingly.
She said, to share with others
what you have learned from me.

Be still and breathe, ever patiently,
for the web of life has woven what
is to be, but you must still chose
your own path, you will see.

And lastly, the wise woman said
to me to listen to the wise one
that dwells within me.
To walk my path in balance
is too be free.
More than just words
So might it be.
