Prayers for our Kokom

[Taken from FB, Jocelyn Woods]

Prayers for Kokom Louise Wawatie, Grandmother Elder of the Algonquin nation in Canada, sister to Elder Jacob Wawatie. Louise suffered a massive stroke with grim outlook from doctors; however, the Peoples of the Earth have raised their voices in a harmonious prayer, pipe offerings and healing ceremonies from across Turtle Island. Yesterday, for the first time, Louise responded to the nurse who asked her to squeeze her hand, and opened her eyes when asked. May Kokom Louise through the deep roots she has nurtured in our Mother Earth be quickened and alivened with the greening force of regeneration and new growth: like a hopeful springtime, may the nectar of the Gods flow through her blood and nerves, healing and awakening her brain, may the love she has seeded abundantly return to her through our ocean of gratitude and praise. In trust and surrender the Earth and Sky sing for Kokom Louise!
