WALK IN LIGHT
Cindy Forsburg
Sometimes I feel as if
I am walking through the world alone,
singing the songs I have taught myself.
Away from the kindred circle,
I carry the past and the future
on my own.
Won’t you
wrap me up in days of light.
Set my feet on ancient streets
where I feel the cool steps of my ancestors.
Show me the stars that are in my blood.
Make a place for me around the fire—
tell me your old stories
so I know how to belong.
