Not sure what to say?

The birds have been fluttering around the last few days. A bright blue one danced around the only cut branch of my sacred Oak as your 1st Native American woman gave hugs in space and displayed her childhood dream catcher. Did you send the bright orange birds yesterday to tell the world not to bomb your beautiful blue jewel in the heavens? Sing and praise her beauty with gratitude and love her plants.

Lighting a candle in remembrance and ever grateful for the wisdom that still emanates from her presence in the plants and sacred mountain where i have been blessed to pray many years.

Dear Catherine: Thank you for trying to help us. I will NEVER forget you, and I will read the books.

That you may remember and dance,
The Bird Songs blend...

Remember

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the...

Katherine was a wonderful teacher and friend. We'll watch over your mountains for you Kathie.
