about

For the Women of my Family! A poem read by Grandma Shirley.

lyrics

I am not from here-

My hair smells of the wind and is full of constellations.
and I move about this world with a healthy disbelief.

and approach my days and work with vaporous consequence.
a touch that is translucent and can violate stone.

I am beautiful beyond compare.

I have always walked this Earth softly-
Talked straight
& carried a huge stick.

I am Native.
I am a Woman.
I am a Mother,
a Grandmother,
a Sister
& a friend.

I have been blessed beyond imagination.
and leave this world with love in Many Hearts.
