Oyate

Out of darkness came the light and out of the light was birthed a bright white buffalo.Oyate is the son of the Sun. He rises each morning, pure as the driven snow, as grandfather and grandchild, wise and wondrous, student and sage. He is a daylight star which burns like a bonfire in the clear blue sky. Oyate went to work on behalf of seed’s seeds. He looked after future generations, teaching them to become abundantly alive and how to share their gifts with The World. He is a leader of leaders, a king of kings and ruler of The Rainbow. Life is his church. The sky is his shelter. Silence his spokesperson. Love his answer. Wisdom his waters. Fire his friend. Now is his gift. You are his equal.
