Griot

Masters of sound

not just history...

 

of past pain and glory

for times worse or better

 

talking books, tenders of visions

memory minders

 

keepers of calendars ...of souls

signalling... where what who how

 

when called upon called upon to bear witness

not only recreate reflections

 

not just lament to represent

to call aside, perpetuate signs

 

relay perspectives

address minds/times

 

To reconnect/resurrect

lost signals of/from the Creator

 

A frog sings ...from across the pond

another answers...

 

remember ...back
