Grey Cloud Woman, Mahpiyahotawin, brings life from
delicate droplets. She transcends elemental phases to deliver the heavens to
earth. Gracefully traversing a current of ocean air, Mahpiyahotawin gives her
essence freely. Her mesmerizing, floating, flowing nature is a constant
comfort. Depicted on the curves of a gourd, she shifts, moves her garment, and
rain shimmers down. With the prolonged heat of summer, or the insatiable thirst
of drought, I long for a cool shower over the dry land. With this piece, I
honor Grey Cloud Woman, and call to her, asking her to bring the healing rain
home.
