2 Dream in Colour

Eye use 2 dream in colour
Prisms of inner eagle visions

Pastel spring High Park bloom colour
Rich velveteen Rouge Valley autumn colour
Feathers of winged ones

Bond between father sky and mother earth

Eye use 2 dream in colour
Prisms of inner eagle visions

All my dreams are beginning to fade
My days are cooler
At night Jack Frost visits me
Knock Knock Knocking on my window pane
Driving me insane with his insidious laugh
Cuz he knows our people never come back . . . 
Published in TOK: Writing the New Toronto, Book 6. Purchase the book to read the full piece.
