Wishes made
Promises untold
But when rain falls
My arms unfold
I am guarded
Desert cloud I bid thee
Forsake the Sun
And bring me the sea

Love Song
When my heart would need
A little company your loving arms
Wouldn't comfort me
Baby ive been set aside
To wander my own starry skies
Days are gone my heart
Would sing our little lie
Bring me a dream
Wont turn its back on me
Make me a promise
Wont cost all of me
Baby ive been alone
Seen the other side
Of nevermind
Bring me a dream
Wont turn its back on me
Make me a promise
Wont cost all of me
Sing me a love song
Make me believe
What home can be
A little company your loving arms
Wouldn't comfort me
Baby ive been set aside
To wander my own starry skies
Days are gone my heart
Would sing our little lie
Bring me a dream
Wont turn its back on me
Make me a promise
Wont cost all of me
Baby ive been alone
Seen the other side
Of nevermind
Bring me a dream
Wont turn its back on me
Make me a promise
Wont cost all of me
Sing me a love song
Make me believe
What home can be

MOON RISE
Stop looking. Stop. Close your eyes.
Turn your face to the dying sun like a flower.
Let the breeze keep time in the wisps of your hair
with the shadows at play upon the mountains.
with the shadows at play upon the mountains.
The elders stand large and forever along the waters
edge
grey and brittle in their high winter garb, their backs
the strength of the ages
grey and brittle in their high winter garb, their backs
the strength of the ages
Let them bear your heart's weight and breathe in a new
day done.
The moon will rise the heart will heal.
Memory will change.
Morning will bring a new song.

Kachina Doll
The clouds they rise and spread
Across this Anasazi sky
Fresh paint upon this ancient place
New life to breathe into my wooden face
High upon a mountain top now I live
I and my like, each with a mystery,
Perhaps from a star, or many stars
or a mystical crack in Mother Earth
Born of water and battered by wind
I found my way to this place
Led by a desert Sun past my labors
Time's threaded weave I put to rest
Skillful hands craft an image
Ink and Paint and Feather, holy bound
Blade to wood and water to stone,
Blood to fetish. I dance and sing
From nowhere and for no one
And I never find a mist in the desert,
The heat and cold so hard at work
And here, mist and Time be one
No one to know from whence I come
A wayward woman, a kindred soul
My spirit nourished by the heat of the
Sun
And I now to learn the mystery of me
As I craft and weave and begin to
Believe
