A coat of many colors...Embrace the day..Thought for today


O our mother the earth, O our father the sky,
Your children are we, and with tired backs
We bring you gifts that you love.
Then weave for us a garment of brightness,
May the warp be the white light of morning.


May the weft be the red light of evening


May the fringes be the falling rain,

May the border be the standing rainbow.
Thus weave for us a garment of brightness
That we may walk fittingly where the grass is green,
O our mother the earth, O our father the sky.


Tewa Pueblo prayer
