Toki’s Voice by Jo Phillips

Toki’s Voice By Jo Phillips

I am incredibly honoured to have my poem, ‘Toki’s Voice’, read by Vice-President of Sacred Sea, Squil-le-he-le, Raynell Morris, at the Toki: Past & Present, Day of Listening Conference on December 13, 2022, in Miami. As you can imagine, it means the world to me; I will hold it in my heart forever.

Raynell‘s powerful beacon of light illuminated the entire conference. Her light shines so brightly. She carries and leads us all with her beautiful elegance, deep integrity and proud unwavering stance, along with the ancestors, the whale people, and the late Chief Tsi’li’xw. We are all together, standing in unity with Tokitae / Sk’alCh’elh-tenaunt.

Hy’shqe, Raynell. We love you.
Your friend across the pond, Jo.
