The Secret Medicine

Should I smudge my path

 

The doorway opens

 

The energies rise

 

After words being spoken

 

The negative vibrations

 

Through each soul stay

 

Our auras encompass us

 

Our thoughts follow our day

 

Hatred, anger, violence too

 

All the bad things coming through

 

I should wash my hands

 

With the sage and sweet grass

 

The hidden treasure that waits

 

The secret medicine

 

Over the head, neck, and stomach

 

Anywhere that’s sick or hurt

 

Don’t let prayer lack

 

Be thankful for the gift

 

Let words flow through your mouth

 

From your heart to your hands

 

Concentrate on the light

 

Walk from door to door

 

Walk from window to window

 

Let the energies absorb the smoke

 

Upstairs and downstairs

 

I feel the vibrations go

 

Smudging takes belief and understanding

 

Many things said that were unclear

 

Many things done to me here

 

Our relationships are important

 

Our communication has to be REAL

 

Our hearts have to be open

 

Our lives are so dear

 

Too many negatives have filled the house

 

To many dark energies

 

Where does it come from

 

Who brings such thoughts here

 

When everything falls

 

I want to run

 

Violence from some is still too many

 

Dark eyes follow

 

Hitting, punching, screaming

 

Time to clear the air

 

Our love is strong and very deep

 

Our family is important

 

Bloodlines crawl into dark spaces

 

Waiting for the moment

 

Waiting for a chance

 

Watching the cracks in the wall

 

Watching the scrapes on the glass

 

Hearing doubt in people’s minds

 

Listening for the perfect time

 

To push negative energies through

 

To let the dark spirits run

 

Our children play so innocent

 

Our children hear what they say

 

These little innocent people

 

Need to be cleansed right away

 

Chances were taken

 

Hearts were broken

 

Our smudging time as come

 

What came in must go out

 

There’s no home for it now

 

Our bonds are strong

 

Our promises real

 

We know what we feel

 

Let the sage rise

 

Let the Great Spirit guide

 

Put our thoughts aside

 

Cleansing takes time

 

But works just right

 

Before our emotions

 

Find the wrong to confide

 

A few times a year

 

That’s what they say

 

The history we have

 

A Few times a day

 

My love was shared

 

I stand real still

 

That time has come

 

For the room to fill

 

Forgive and forget

 

I doubt shall I say

 

But moving on is best

 

When negative vibes are put to rest
