INSPIRATION
From north, south, east, and west
the ancestors send their animal envoys
into my dreams.
There--
both cautious and enchanted I watch them,
walk with them, hold them, and feed them.
They, in turn--
silently reveal their magic and mystery.
From this my imagination forms words
and images, and my hands
bring them to life.
