Sweetgrass

The important thing about sweetgrass is that you can smudge

and pray with it.

It’s green and sweet smelling, it looks like a braid.

We can pray to the creator.

We pray anywhere.

I pray with my grandma.

You can feel peace inside you.

It can take your bad things away.

But the important thing about sweetgrass is that you can smudge and pray with it.
