voices
when you were young
wee voices comforted you
now with curiosity and integrity
you hear what always is whispering.
voices of ancestors, mentors, and avatars
come on the wind - whisper in the thin places.
with joy I see you wake and hear the ancient calling.
do not fear the learning, thinking it unknown, it is but memory.
you are never alone though you may become lost.
you are ever connected though you may go far.
you will center yourself in your purposes.
you will find many levels of belonging.
do listen to these quiet voices.
work at understanding them.
consider their calling.
act on your plan.
