I hold the secrets of the earth, and the stories of the women
I am the story keeper, red tent priestess, medicine woman
Kali, Crow woman, Truth speaker, Womb listener, Earth lover
Locked within me are the stories of a hundred thousand women…
Beautiful birth stories, babes ripped from womb stories,
The babies who slept on stories….
The girls who were celebrated stories, the first blood stories
All these Sacred Stories are locked in my Womb
Stories of death, of loss, of separation and persecution
Stories of so much joy and happiness that we have to sing their praises
Stories of the future, what might be….
Stories of the past, our loves ones and ancient ones
Memories have been shared with tears and laughter
with much drumming and singing, dancing and celebrating
Here we honour the Ancient ones, the hidden ones
angels, divas, guardians of the earth and of our sacred space
We honour our wombs, our daughters, our grand mothers
We give thanks for the earth, air, fire and water
We pray for our Great Mother Earth to be honoured by all
And to Grandmother Moon to share her wisdom with all
As I sit on the earth, steam rises from my skin
within it I see their faces,
I hear the whispers….the stories
the stories of rape, abuse, neglect
and I pray
and I pray the world will change
that we will stand strong, Warrior Women
together …sisters, mothers, daughters
I am the womb dancer of the Red Thread
I am the story keeper, red tent priestess, medicine woman
Kali, Crow woman, Truth speaker, Womb listener, Earth lover
I hold the secrets of the earth, and the stories of the women
Together with a hundred thousand women
we walk the Red Road
The Stories connect us all
Together we walk the Red Road.
