Gay Jensen - Sharing Tales

The Magic of Hers

She is a woman who walks the hills

She is a woman who dances all the night away in these hills

She is a woman with ice in her fur and a tattoo on her butt She is a woman who sings with the moon and howls with the first rays of the rising sun She is a woman with claws

She is a gentle woman She is a woman of lullabies and longs to hear one sung to her She is a woman who sings in caves emerging only when an echo returns her song She is a woman who drinks from the stream

Wild animals come to drink beside her

She tells them tales and she remembers theirs What is this magic of hers?
It's in her blood, it's in the stars
.

— Rita Bresnahan and Valerie Rose
