I wanted this to have a feel of a fire dance.




Dance of Unity

Pound the drums
Stomp your feet
Yelp and wail
Dance the beat

Fire the passion
Sing your soul
Bare your spirit
Rhythm roll

Shake the feathers
Rattle the gourds
Hear the music
Gather your store

Fires of heaven
Stars not found
Moons of many
Fertile ground

Grains of nations
Feed the land
People thriving
Hand in hand

Faces of color
Eyes of ages
Mouths of babes
Wisdom of sages

Taste the joy
Watch the flame
Touch the sky
Shout your name

Feel the love
Be as one
Unity beckons
Beat those drums

I certainly felt this one as I read it and even felt it beating in my blood. It made me think of our grandma pee-ant, with all her Indian blood. She was small of stature but big of spirit. I just saw her face as I read this. Wonderful!

This makes me think of the choreographic and visual day my choir had last Saturday... Being in a school gym, we didn't make any fire, but 65 babes were there, stamping their feet and shaking all their feathers :-)))
Great fiery rhythm in this text, Kathy!

Certainly a fire-dance with a drum rolling beat! I could feel the tingling in my toes...
