The Shaman arrives,
shape-shifted
from nurse to
healer.
Gently, expertly
the Shaman
guides Medicine
into place.
Medicine,
imbued with wisdom
from countless prayers,
knows
where to go
and what to do.
The great journey
of healing begins.
Inspiration: Written for a close friend starting chemotherapy

“I have always been fascinated by the Native American Indians, and their philosophy and ways of living in harmony with the earth, we as modern people are learned by schools media and our own governments to emphasize our lives on materialism and fear, instead of love, love of life, love of our selves, love to our fellow men and women, love for people that are different from our selves, love of earth. I have found the Indian Shaman Healer in me, have you?” (Morten Bonnet)
