    Another Life

     Reincarnate as a songbird
    be part of a flock
    eat
        seed
               and sing
    RUN OUT OF HABITAT

    Live once again as Great Northern Moose
    walk along nature's trails
    pose
            for
                people
    USING CAMERAS NOT GUNS

    Come back as a Rainbow Trout
    swim wild rivers
    species
               invade
                        waterways
    MERCURY AND ACID RAIN

    Return as a Snowshoe Hare
    brown when it is green
    white when bushes are bare

    Life anew as a White Pine
    Evergreen spire majestic
    Cut down
         in
            numbers
    A RENEWABLE RESOURCE

    Even though I'm an Honorable Apache and Navajo, they know and understand I don't believe in all American I ndian beliefs like reincarnation as an Aunt of mine does. I loved this an I used to hunt for food. I ate the heart first after giving thanks to the animal for giving it's life so I could live and Great Spirit God for putting it on Earth for food. A wonderful meaningful write,to be appreciated. Sam.

    You will as God has prepared a new Earth. Our eternal Earth of beauty and filled with love. Be assured of that. I know this as fact. Peace from the Dove above,,,Sam

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
