| | The Miracle Writing/Poem: | My hands were tiring
But the smell of smoke was sweet
And gave me strength.
More swiftly I twirled
The dry stalk of yucca in the notch.
A thin, white stream began rising
Growing into a small cloud at my feet.
A small, glowing ember
Fell into the nest of shredded of grass and bark
I had so carefully prepared.
I folded it around the glowing coal,
Lifted it into the sky'
And gently blew my breath upon it.
Once more the magic happened,
Light burst open in my hands:
Yellow, white Light now too hot to hold.
As I fed it, it grew
Consuming my every dry offering.
The more I offered the larger it became.
Now it lights our shelter.
Tonight we shall sleep warmly.
When the Sun rises I will cooksotol roots.
We will feast.
Our children will grow strong.
The people will live on and on.
I thank Great Spirit.
Great Spirit smiles upon us.
Great Spirit gave us the miracle.
