A Wyandotte Woman
back
home
My hands reach high
The arms stretch,
They become resilient
And reach toward the heavens
Until they are translucent
Yet they reach more.
Though my clay feet stay on the earth
My fingers have become part of the heavenly world,
To caress the cheeks of angels.
Whether I fall
Whether I walk
Whether I lay down,
My soul has become
Part of the spiritual world
To blend with the elements of time.
Spiritual Hands
and
Clay Feet
