Universal Braid
Time to braid my bracelet~
I call the universal braid
I have selected my colors
From many choices to be made
The thread of the color red
The color that joins us
Running through each and every vein
Let us not allow one more drop to be shed in vain.
The thread of the color green
The color of our Mother Earth
Allowing us to walk on stable ground
Let us not allow our Mother to be destroyed
The thread of color blue
The color that surrounds us
As we look to the sky and pray
Our Heavenly Father above protects us
As we wear our universal braid of love and peace
On our wrist to display
All that joins us as One
Our hope for each and everyday
Our Father provides us water
Our Mother provides us food
Our Sun provides the light we need
Let us not self destruct this gift we have been given
