Poetic Premise Thou art my sister, because we were born of the same Great Spirit; Conceived from the same mound of earth; Slept quietly together in the cradle of Unknowing until He in His gentleness set us in the midst of humanity…. You Are My Sister, I Love You. You and I are destined to be companions on the highway of life-Together or apart, You Are My Sister, I Love You. If the color of my skin is different from yours, it mattereth not, Only let the beauty of our souls be kindred. I will honor our wisdom and understanding, as you will mine. Together we shall see the seeds of truth in the distant rooms of the Great Spirit; The reflection of inner knowledge shall wear as beauty upon our face…. You Are My Sister, I Love You. I will be human and fall down in rough places; But thy hands is near mine, I will reach for it, I shall not be alone, I will embrace you when the rains of sorrow visit you, I will befriend your soul as if it were my own….. You Are My Sister, I Love You. If death takes from me the lamp of life, and the veil of eternal sleep falls across my eyes before yours, I will wait for you. I will come to lead you across the bridge of night into the meadows of the Great Spirit. You Are My Sister, I Love You!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I am so beautiful I am fearfully and wonderfully made by God I am his creation Inside of me is love Inside of me is peace Inside of me is joy Inside of me is happiness I am the Rose of Sharon blashing in a dry desert God said it I believe it and That settles it!
