Today I have the privilege and honor to be able to share with you a poem that is full of the Love, Light, and the Beauty of SPIRIT written by a Precious Sacred Woman/Shaman her name is Robin Tekwelus Youngblood, Okanagon/Tsalagi. Open up your heart and Spirit and enjoy as you travel on her words of Light and Love. But first, I must share with you a little about this Precious Spirit.
Rev. Robin Tekwelus Youngblood, Okanagon/Tsalagi, minister of Church of the Earth, has been a student of her heritage for many years. She has studied with Indigenous elders of her own tribes, along with African, Siberian and Aboriginal leaders. Robin believes that the only way to create harmony and avoid disaster in these times is to learn to attune ourselves to our Earth Mother's natural rhythms through ritual, ceremony, chant and dance. "I love to sing, honor the ancestors, and share the ancient teachings with others. Please join me for Dreaming Shaman Workshops, Retreats and Ceremonies where together we can bring balance to Mother Earth and All Our Relations."
In Lakesh
My love is a pillar of light
His eyes smoky crystalline pools
Radiant with love
He sees with the vision of the eagle
His scent is the musk of hibiscus
He is strong as the gentle ocean.
Together my love and I danced the stars
Turning cartwheels in the night sky
We spun the web of the universe
Gossamer light trailed from our touch.
My heart soars with love for him
My soul is awe-inspired
I open to him as a flower
Petal by soft shimmering petal.
He is wise with the knowledge
Of the ancient ones
Pure as a newborn child
His beauty is unsurpassed
And reflected in the many eyes
That look upon him.
He teaches me with each caress
I bask in the warmth of his honor
By acknowledging me so deeply
I become ever more fully myself.
My love is ÒIn LakeshÓ -
Another myself
Purest reflection of all
God/Goddess within.
We stand in the Garden
Consummate in our creation
And we are one
Our love-making waters the earth
Our joy transforms the universe
The heavens explode with our love.
I meet my love
With all that I am
And all that I have to give
That together we might serve.
This lover of mine
Is free as the rolling wave
And I, I am
The wind on the water.
Many times have his house
And mine been joined
We have traveled many
Worlds together
Where we walk on the path
Wildflowers bloom.
Will I see him again
In this lifetime?
My heart awaits his call
Yet always we are one.
For my love is In Lakesh
Forever a part of me
His presence lives within me
His light which is mine shines purely.
In Lakesh
