Los Siete Altares

Sacred place
Guarded by African altar
Here blackness is celebrated
As nature
And nature
As blackness.

Forest and river
Overcome and silence the human voice
Here only nature speaks.

Whispering waterfall
Knows your name
You answer it, yes
And listen.

Of patience and wisdom
She speaks to you
Confronting the surfaces of rocks
And changing the course of the world.

Of faith and dedication
Always continuing on the path
With only the wind to guide.

Of silent and loving strength
Nourishing the flow
With the unconditional blessings of sun and rain.

The river does not only speak,
She listens.

Only touching her streams with the tip of the finger
You are changing the fate of the world
By the direction of her flow
Sitting in her waters
You are part of her majestic plan
And you sing the same song
As she.

The river is life
She charts the world`s path
You stroke her
And she senses your desires and passions
And they become a part of her
Destined course.
