Always be proud of who you are and where you come from, no matter the history!


Poem Artwork

Mystery and history
looking for that mojo
Wanting never to forget,
exactly where I come from...


 


Tattered hides, moccasin feet
earthworn faces cherub sweet
Times and troubles they weathered
blessed elders to them I'm tethered


Many paths forced to take
pride no one could ever forsake
Numbers once greatly decimated
rebirth, regrowth not calculated


Great heart again beats
veins pulsing beneath modern streets
What was once will again be
celestial tides subdue embittered history


 


Great spirit has shown me the way,
illuminating my night, my day
Showing me what many would choose to forget
enlightenment, growth mine, I beget


Where I have come from most important,
heritage should never be a disappointment
Where I am going shaped by the past,
pride in self built to last


(c)2005

I really love this. It really digs under my skin and I like the beginning line. Its what I always think to myself about where I am.

Mother Poet will smile to grace You, Poet!

Thank You for this Paean to ignite the torch of JUSTICE... I hear the inner music of its soul... I listened to the message that brings the aroma of love from the womb of NATURE through the magical lines of "A Real Blessing".

"What was once will again be...". Of that I have no doubt. The depths of who we are lay in the past. It pulses through our blood. And I beleive we carry memories in our dna from generations before.
Love this write, Nikki! Superb!

heritage is so important...and so many of us share this heritage, despite our differences. great expression, poet, upholding what is eternally true, that we should always be seeking to 'know ourselves', in every facet.

the Spirit guides us to the truth of who we are and as we hear it we know it is the only way it can be. Modern times is more accepting of the past, which is one of the miricles of the present.
