Description
Mandala of the Rising Thunderbird
(Mandala of the First Nations)
2011
Metallic Gel Pen on Illustration Board
Peace
We the people
Of this once nameless ancient land
We who lived in this earth
That we did not own
But called home
And now we stay
In plots we own
Yet caged like birds
In this land now named
After an ancient map maker
1. Acknowledge
We are of many nations
Heart beating to a freedom
Long gone
And we await
The coming of the Rainbow Warrior
Foretold by the bearing
Of the white grazer
2. Release
The days of plenty are gone
We will never ride like the wind
We will soon soar in the winds
The days of waiting
Have soiled our souls
We will awaken in the new sun
The nations union
Is our hope
We are ONE
3. Awaken
Rise brothers and sisters
To the beating of the drums
Listen to the booming
Of the Thunderbird
We walk the great plains
We trek the deep forests
We cross the vast oceans
We blaze the frozen lands
We march proudly through the desert
And we come to the plentiful land
It is a good day
We are ONE
4. Return
We are the Rainbow Nation
We sing the songs of the earth
We sing chant the rhythms of the winds
We are free
