Indian Forefathers Poem by Dave Alan Walker

Indian Forefathers

Rating: 3.7


In the eyes of the wolf
lies a soul,
the soul of truth

One day
that soul will rise
as the indian forefathers
come back to claim their land

Through the eyes of the wolf
the indian man will teach the world

very beautiful...some translations of the King James Bible substitute the wolf for the lion and write 'the wolf shall lie down with the lamb' I believe I have had at least 2 past lives as a Native American

A deep thought provoking poem with many shades of meaning. Truth, as elusive as the soul of the wolf.

Not knowing much about Indian forefathers, but I know the saying What goes round comes round and I guess the message in your poem could well come true on that understanding.

An intriguing poem, although slightly ambiguous. Just how exactly will the Indian man teach the world through the eyes of the wolf? I enjoyed reading it in any case, and congratulations on having it selected as poem of the day!

Poets see beyond the immediate with their pens. This is one of such. The real estate owner may rule the land one day. Nice write

May be this a prophesy, who knows. I like the poem it poses millions of questions.
