Echoes of the Dreamtime.
12th January 2002
The Dreamtime is a beginning that never ended, and is most often used to refer to the 'time before time', or 'the time of the
creation of all things', which explains the origins and culture of the land and its people. It is the story of things that have
happened, how the universe came to be, how human beings were created and how the Creator intended for humans to function within
the cosmos.
Echoes of the Dreamtime.
In the Dreamtime,
We danced the Great Divide,
To ritual beats,
We made the sacred stones.
In the Dreamtime,
We became dust on the wind,
Blowing in the Tanami desert,
We shaped the ancient landscape.
In the Dreamtime,
We awoke the sleeping spirits,
Burst forth in glorious colours,
We made the barren earth live.
In the Dreamtime,
We rose into the sky,
With Moon and Stars to guide us,
We set the Sun alight.
