Statute

a decree made by God

the archaic use of this word

were we given a statute of limitations?

a time frame within which we could return

return to living as love?

the golden rule

do no harm

is the statute that has stood the test of time

most other states are man-made

and are designed to confine

even outlaw what we do

or how we be

there is a message from the Hopi

people of peace

shared by friend

and a time to revisit this ancient prophecy

with an elder’s explanation of

what was written in stone

please listen and ponder

13 minutes 11 seconds longer

for we are not alone

in this journey

such wisdom shared

where we are at and our potential

especially our relationship to water

and how science may now gift

our abilities to solve

the mystery of our very existence
