   Ken–this is strong and beautiful. Yes–some forests should be left to God.

      This is a long time issue in Suriname and they still can’t find a proper (political) solution. The indigenous people are now forced to go international for more attention. Thanks, Susan!

         They form a strong united international forum that is making slow progress in spreading awareness and achieving results.

         They now have a national holiday each year in Suriname called “Day of The Indigenous People”, with Amerindians from North- and South-America attending the celebrations. This concerns Amerindian as well as Maroon communities. 🙂

   The macabre laugh has been echoing around the world long enough! Perhaps the new sound will be leaves rustling?

      Some AmerIndian spirits use extraordinary animal appearances (jumping fish) and sounds (macabre laughing) to warn and scare away strangers with bad intensions. So, changing or silencing the sound is up to us. Isn’t it? Thanks, Melody! 🙂

   Powerful poem. We must honor the earth so the earth supports us. I hope a solution that is respectful to the forest and the indigenous people is reached.

      They are working at it but the Indigenous people and Maroons should adopt a more united and realistic approach if they want good results fast. Thanks, Marie! 🙂

   When we begin to remember that we are not separate from anything in our universe, will we begin to be more careful with our environment. Thank you for this beautiful poem, and your loving concern. Lots of love, Yaz
