Snuggle up
in your bed,
wrapping yourself
comfortably in your covers.
LONG PAUSE
Let your neck muscles melt
into your pillow,
While the rest of you
Sinks deeply and comfortably
into the folds of your bed
LONG PAUSE
As you melt into your bed,
feel yourself become
one with the bed,
completely relaxed.
LONG PAUSE
Now, see if you can imagine
a solo raindrop,
iridescent in the sunlight,
descending to the ground.
PAUSE
The raindrop pauses briefly,
bubbling up like a crystal dome,
before magically moving–
rolling through the grass.
PAUSE
And as the raindrop rolls,
It seems to be
looking for something,
something that is missing.
PAUSE
Now see if you can imagine
connecting with the raindrop
as it stops at a golf course
and asks the short, stiff grass,
“Are you my tribe?”
PAUSE
The bright green blades of grass,
stand firm in the soil
and prepare to
whisper their truth.
You and the raindrop listen.
PAUSE
“No, we are not your tribe,
but early in the morning,
we wake and find you
nourishing us,
and shining with us
in the light of the sun.
PAUSE
Now, picture if you can,
the little raindrop smiling
and thanking the golf grass
for sharing,
and the golf grass
wishing the raindrop
luck on its journey.
PAUSE
Now, take a minute and breathe in,
and see if you can imagine
the little raindrop and you
rolling before a giant redwood tree.
PAUSE
As the raindrop approaches
the majestic redwood,
tall and powerful,
it calls out, “Are you my tribe?”
PAUSE
And the redwood bends,
ever so slightly
to see you and the tiny raindrop
and shakes its leaves “no.”
PAUSE
Then the redwood speaks
in a voice that
rumbles through the air.
“From time-to-time, though,
you come to me with many friends
and bathe my roots and leaves,
so, thank you.”
PAUSE
You and the little raindrop smile
and thank the redwood
for sharing.
And the redwood
wishes you both
luck on your journey.
PAUSE
So, imagine if you can,
that you and the little raindrop
keep rolling
until you come across a turtle.
PAUSE
You both approach
the turtle,
with its greenish-brown shell
and bits of algae on barnacles
sticking on the back.
PAUSE
You and the raindrop wait until
the turtle slooowly turns and faces you
and then you and the raindrop ask,
“Are you my tribe?
PAUSE
The turtle pulls its head
back in the shell
and pauses for
many minutes
before shaking its head “no”.
PAUSE
You and the raindrop are about to leave
when the turtle
calls out.
“You are my life force and
allow me to eat and travel the world.
I will take you to your tribe.”
PAUSE
Joy fills you and the little raindrop
and you shimmy back and forth
with excitement,
before jumping on
the turtle’s back.
PAUSE
On the turtle’s back,
you and the little raindrop
lumber through the grass,
passing mushrooms and ants and flowers
until you came to the ocean.
PAUSE
“Are we here?” asks the little raindrop.
The turtle bobs his head “yes”
and lets you and the little raindrop
slide off his back
before he walks into the ocean.
PAUSE
You and the little raindrop stand together
watching as the waves
splash onto the sand
and then roll back into the ocean.
PAUSE
“Are you my tribe?” asks the raindrop.
Then, a single wave
rises above you both,
magically pausing in the air.
“Yes, sisters, we are.”
PAUSE
You and the little raindrop
study the wave
and began to roll
closer to her.
PAUSE
The wave appears again,
and you and the little raindrop thank her.
“We’ve traveled a long time
to find our tribe.”
