    1. To pray you open your whole self
      To sky, to earth, to sun, to moon
      To one whole voice that is you.
      And know there is more
      That you can’t see, can’t hear;
      Can’t know except in moments
      Steadily growing, and in languages
      That aren’t always sound but other
      Circles of motion.
      Like eagle that Sunday morning
      Over Salt River. Circled in blue sky
      In wind, swept our hearts clean
      With sacred wings.
      We see you, see ourselves and know
      That we must take the utmost care
      And kindness in all things.
      Breathe in, knowing we are made of
      All this, and breathe, knowing
      We are truly blessed because we
      Were born, and die soon within a
      True circle of motion,
      Like eagle rounding out the morning
      Inside us.
      We pray that it will be done
      In beauty.
      In beauty.

      ~ Joy Harjo, “Eagle Poem” from In Mad Love and War. (1990, Wesleyan University Press,)
