Dear Pachamama,
We watched you before you knew how to see us.
You walked the forest like someone remembering a language you once spoke in dreams.Soft steps. Listening pauses. Head tilted when the wind shifted.You didn’t move like the others.
So we waited.
We sat on branches above your thoughts.We followed the rhythm of your breath.We called … quietly at first, just to see if you would turn.
You didn’t yet.
Then one day, you stepped through.
Not a doorway made of wood or stone,but a thinning in the air…a place where the world softenedand your listening opened.
You crossed the veil without knowing.And when you did… you heard us.
The cardinal spoke first. Bright flame in the green.“I see you,” he said,and you stopped.
The blue jay landed close, bold as truth.“You belong here,” he told you,guarding your shoulder like it had always been his place.
The hummingbird stitched the air with light. “You are learning the language again,” she whispered,her wings beating between worlds.
And the crow… the old one, the watcher, stepped forward from shadow and root.
“We have been calling you Pachamama,” he said. “Long before you remembered the name.”
Because you listen to the ground.Because you carry warmth in cold places.Because you sit, and the forest exhales.Because you hold grief and beauty in the same cup.
You thought you found us.
But we found you first.
We followed you through the portal, through the moment your heart softened,through the day the air shimmered,through the instant you heard the metallic echo of motherin the trees.
That was not imagination.
That was the veil thinning.That was us,finally able to reach you.
We are not here to guide you away. We are here to stand beside you.
You are not above the forest. You are of it.
And now that you hear us, we no longer have to call so loudly.
We will sit near… On your arm. In the branches. At your feet.
Watching.
Witnessing.
Calling you by the name you stepped into.
Pachamama.
We see you.
We have always seen you.
And now…
you see us too.
