Celestial
Location
You open your dazzling silver eyes
And let your golden eyelashes brush against your cyan cheeks
Lavender hair spilling out across your shoulders and chest
Wispy grass
Lush and green comforts every muscle in your body
And fills your nose with the sweet scent of nature
Your tribe is already awake
Smoky breakfast of fire baked roots and cold fruits
Are pouring out of woven baskets
Lined up symmetrically on wooden spokes
Your ice white lips whisper greetings to the tribe
"Pévevóona’o"
And you sit down in the circle of friends surrounding the fire
Laughter
And song ensues
Curling your icy lips into a genuine smile
Today you break the news
Your heart has chosen to leave the tribe
In the spirit of adventure
And self conquest
Your tribe nods in agreement
Acceptance
Those silver eyes sparkle as you look ahead across the plains
The grass whispers as it sways in the wind
Awaiting your conquest
Cheering you on
The stars, hidden now in the morning light
Nod silently,
Prepared to watch over you
And keep you safe
As they have done
For many others before
Turning to your family
The golden light catches on your lavender hair
Making you appear godlike as you whisper to them
"Nėstaévȧhósevóomȧtse"
I’ll see you again.
I’ll see you again.
There are no mountains and no oceans of which you cannot cross
Simply a journey of natures beauty cradling you in her arms
For this is no planet earth
But one unseen by human eyes
Unscathed by pollution and waste
Inhabited only by humanesque creatures
Nomadic and godlike
Built of constellations
And guided by dreams
