The Way of the Heartbeat, part 17: The Pulse of My Heart Drum

Waagaabagaa-giizis (Leaves Turning Moon) / Manoominike-giizis (Ricing Moon) - October 1, 2024

THE PULSE OF MY HEART DRUM

They use spring water for the water drums

Straight from the flowing veins of mother earth

Motion of the water created by the moon

Generating life through the hidden miigis shells.

This is why we must think good thoughts.

Good thoughts are like water flowing from a well.

They not only benefit our own soul

But have a ripple effect that influences everyone else.

I wish my intentions to be clear like water

So that the pulse of my heart drum shall resonate

Far beyond the moon, time, and space

And infuse life into the shells of the still unborn

For many generations to come.
