The Shaman,
He walked the woods when the stars did glow
Calling to the night
And stars did fall far down below
Casting him their Light
The rain did wash his soul pure clean
As Deer did watch and prance
The forest heard his cry of Peace
A lament as old as Time
While Butterflies came out to greet
And overhead did Dance
He went each day to this old tree
Whose walnuts now did fall
The gnarled old Trunk held his thought
As to the stars he called
The Shaman knew the secret old
Of where we first were born
And every day he sang his song
As he greeted the New Dawn.
How do I know the Rainbows End
Will not be far from sight?
Well the Shaman came and found me
And held me to his Light.
He told that there was a way
To unlock that secret door
That one had but to Trust
And love right from the core.
So I took his hand as he led the way
Back through the Stones of Old.
And we disappeared right off the edge
As Ancients had foretold
But this is not the end
For our journey has just begun
As we travel to the Stars again
And join the Light of Suns
Forever now in Rainbow hues
To Dance among the Stars
The Shaman hums his Melody
And if you listen close you’ll hear our
Echo’s on the wind
Together now We Dance in warm embrace
For now we are the Light

Wow you spun me out with this writing , for a moment there I felt I was a part of the poem and the echoes on the winds can only come from the soul of the shaman , someone who has the knowledge of the inner truth of our being.
Thanks for allowing me to enjoy and feel a part of your words

Thank you Ian, we all have our Shamans if we search for them.. some like yourself have flown on the winds and through the rainbows.. and your searching has led you to connect once again with your heart and love of aeons past… And I for one am both richer for knowing you both.. 🙂

Written all the way back in 2011. Wow! I love the imagery and the message of Love. The shaman’s word is not overpowering, and he does not force us to listen. His voice is a whisper urging us in the right direction, while still acknowledging that WE have to make the choice to turn to the light.
But as we do, we are surrounded in love. I can hear him singing a song of greeting, gratitude, light and love…
Beautifully written, my dear friend. You are a gifted poet!
