Soothing Sounds – v2

A single flute,
the notes like pearls
crafted, birthed
coming alive
ancient, native
sounding in the room,
down by my feet,
echoing muted,
like smoke from a dying fire

through the space, through time
oozing into my consciousness
soothingly, for the hours
the length of the day
seeping into me

Intoning the spirits
the haunting tones
of the wind, the wild,
the wilderness,
the peoples, evoked,
of this place, long ago
stilling me, healing
the energy, the pain
subsiding, of this day
