This is a beautiful poem and a splendid tribute to earth, indigenous peoples and deep wisdom. I love the last two lines: “and yes, every day, we start a Revolution and a walk toward home.” What a treasure! Thank you!
Late very late to the party sorry, I submit not a poem but first nations Luke 11: 2-4 words of prayer:
"O Great Spirit, our Father from above, your name is sacred and holy, bring your good road to us, where the beauty of your ways on the spirit-world above is reflected in the earth below. Provide for us day by day - the elk, the buffalo, a d the salmon. The corn the squash and the wild rice. All the good things we need for each day. Release us from the things we have done wrong in the same way we release others for the things done wrong to us. And guide us away from the things that tempt us to stray from your good road"

What an exquisite poem Kaitlin. Thank you.
I wasn't familiar with the International day ... only the one in US in October. Thanks for pointing it out to us and sharing a great prompt!
