The Advent gift on Day 6 of Sharing the Joy comes from the Walking Together as First and Second Peoples Circle.
Circle Advocate Alison Overeem offers a reflection on 'a shared basket of new life'
And so the seeds were sownAnd so the anticipation of new life was shownShown through the breezeShown through the treesShown through the footprintsIn the sands, across these all-knowing ancient landsDo nina tunapri new life?Do nina tunapri hope in the healing?Do nina tunapri healing in the hope?Do nina tunapri?As the echo of hope sits abundantWhispers in the pungkatina/bushAcross the muka/waterThrough story lines and song linesThrough an ancestral laritja /threadWe are being called to the tirrina / basket of hope and anticipationAs takarilya / familyAs nawnta and nita- brother and sisterAs a karati/ friend mapali in the basket that will forever bind usForever find usForever call usThe time is nearAs the palati/ good spiritWhispers to our takila /heartWe know the call of our saviour is upon usWithin usKnowing usAs the woven matOf ancient landsOf creatorOf milaythina /landSpeaks to our truthWarranta/ we feel the hopeWe krakani /sit with the knowingIt is nearIt is near
