The River’s Serenade

You are currently viewing The River’s Serenade
In twilight tender embrace, Where dreams softly tread,
Whispers of the ancient race, In shadows they are led.
Mountains guard their secret lore, Valleys echo deep,
Rivers sing forevermore, Through lands we softly keep.

Stars reveal untold truths, In heavens nightly dance,
Stories born in sacred youths, Of warriors ancient stance.
Sunlight warms the barren plains, Life seeks silent streams,
In the winds are old refrains, From elders in our dreams.

Natures pulse in every beat, Harmonies align,
In the earth, we feel complete, Legends intertwine.
Love transcends the canyon walls, Whispering through the pines,
In its embrace, no spirit falls, It heals and redefines.

Resilience molded of the clay, Crafted by brave hands,
In their strength, we find our way, Across these hallowed lands.
Spiritual light, forever shines, Guiding us anew,
Eternal wisdom, intertwined, In hearts kept pure and true.

Oliver Stone, a pen name, is an author deeply influenced by Apache wisdom and the natural world. Born in Silver City, New Mexico, his life journey includes service in the Marine Corps and a career in non-profit management. Stone's connection to Apache teachings began in his childhood, as his father was fortunate to learn from Tahoma Whispering Wind, a revered Apache elder, during his time at Mary Himes' Poor Folks Farm in Dry Creek. This ancestral link to Tahoma's wisdom ignited Stone's lifelong passion for Apache philosophy and practices. Drawing from his father's teachings and his own diverse experiences, Stone now dedicates himself to bridging ancient Apache knowledge with modern-day challenges through his writing. His work, including "Spirit of the Wild: Reconnecting with Nature's Wisdom," aims to help readers reconnect with nature, find inner peace, and live harmoniously with the earth, reflecting the deep respect for nature and interconnectedness central to Apache philosophy.
