Whispers of the Sacred Canyon

You are currently viewing Whispers of the Sacred Canyon
In the hush of twilight glow, Echoes tell of valor might,
Ancient drums in rhythm flow, Starlit trails where spirits light.
Lands of red and whispering shade, Cry the tales of warriors brave,
Mountains guard where hearts evade, Paths that twist where hopes engrave.

Rivers carve the canyons' song, Etched in stone like sacred lore,
Flowing currents swift and strong, Bear the dreams of those before.
Eagles soar on canyons' breath, Circling high in azure sky,
Feathers kiss the winds of death, Whisper low as shadows fly.

Fires warmth in nights embrace, Stories weave in embers light,
Voices from an ageless space, Blend with night and morning bright.
Rest not where the storm does lie, Seek the calm within the strife,
Find the strength to learn and fly, Holding close the pulse of life.

In the quiet, hear the call, Of the earth and stars above,
Wisdom whispers through it all, Binding souls in threads of love.
Fields of sage and blooming time, Carry forward ancient grace,
Memories in verses rhyme, Eternal as the canyons face.

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.
