Winds Of Time By Paul Wilson Step softly upon the sacred ground of our fore fathers trace their foot steps back… back into times of hardship and strife Look within yesterdays searching for signs they left behind relive the days when brave warriors in battle lost their life Storm clouds gather as great chiefs meet with white eyes to smoke pipe while others wait patiently for signal carried on winds Promises made will be broken before the next moon comes wives and children run like buffalo before slaughter begins The sun slowly rises upon the field of red today mothers and wives cry for loved ones lost… their spirit now free A new chief leads his people west beyond the great mountains away from their homeland that sadly they were forced to flee Across the great desert where foot prints still remain today spirits float upon winds of time forever and a day Give us our land so we can live in peace and harmony a nation of people searching for their homeland now pray Eagle carries hopes and dreams across rivers and canyons tomorrows rains may wash away tears but not their spirit Three more moons will rise before they reach their destination pride, strength, honor and determination won’t let them quit Winds of time for eternity safely carry spirits keepers of the buffalo, eagle, bear, fish and the deer Give us our lands let us be free is all we ask of you no more tears shed or battles fought…our future is now clear ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul |
