It’s time was up and it fell to the dirt. With it’s last breath, the spirit of the coyote escaped from it’s gold toothed mouth in a sonic boom of an energy. And from it’s dark hollow throat a plant of woody pods and black sage blossoms grew. The pods revealed tiny seeds of sparkling gems and glossy glass bulbs. The blossoms bloomed petals caressing brass bits. Soon there were bees feeding on these flowers something more of an elixir than a nectar. The honey bees began to shimmer with golden bodies. The bumble bees started twinkling with opals and sapphires. The blood stained soil once hard and cold, became a warm cushion of red velvet where the skull of the creature still stood strong. The bees gathered together building intricate bronze structures with gilded nest that protected living jewels. Then the light of the moon and the sun harmonized into one entity of white glowing crystals, forever illuminating this sacred cycle.
