The Red Road



This Red Road we walk is definitely not for the faint of heart, nor is it for all

Tis only for those who have learned to harken, and heed Creator’s quiet call



I’ll light the sacred Sweetgrass and pray for you, so that you will always prevail

When the dark ones come lurking, and your inner-light grows grievously pale



I’ll pray that our loving Creator gives to you another glorious tomorrow

And that He sees you through the hard times, all the pain and all the sorrow



I’ll stand by you through thick and thin

Together we have power and strength, and together we can win



I’ll stand by you whenever you feel spiritually weak

I’ll help you find that spiritual truth, the "One" that you seek



My heart soars like an eagle and swells with pride

Because we walk this magnificent Red Road collectively, side by side



Hi, hi

I wrote this poem in dedication to my very dear friends and fellow Sweat-Hogs, John and Diann Block, whom I love greatly.
