Cherokee Prayer Comments

My wife was half Cherokee and she had many stories that her father and aunt passed on to her. A great poem Jack.

Here, here! this brought a tear to my eye, i can never think of these people without hurting for the injustice, yet feeling pride also at their braveness, so many thoughts dance through my mind and so many faces gaze out of sepia paper stored in my minds eye...tyvm

Powerful poem, and one that resonates with this Yakama and Choctaw native. ;)

ohhhhhh, and it does work for all natives that have been invaded by wandering tribes of those who think they have a right to take from others....smiles...

this is truly a vision of reality. Living in Choctaw Nation, I am surrounded by visuals of what has been done in the name of prosperity. You are a very talented human....great write...blessings...DeVa
