Yes, Shan, it is from the Navajo Blessing Way, though there are different versions of it. It's sort of the Anglicized version, I think. But a beautiful thought, for sure. I like Hillerman too!
"To me the world of poetry is a house with thousands of glittering windows. Our words and images, land to land, era to era, shed light on one another. Our words dissolve the shadows we imagine fall between."
