    the spirits dont cry.

     i know not how the spirits never cry . when we all lay and die. we spend our sining and walking a walk not meant to be . death and disease they claim us everyday as we take and name whats not ours to be . why dont the spirits cry we all lay down and die. we give what we can and not be chast with the land. we name it and slaughter but yet the spirits dont cry. we be angry and merry and drink till the dawn and take for granted what its all worth . were give chocies and we choose so many times the ones that make us lose ourselvs in the patterns of the world . for we bleed upto the land and it bleeds to keep us alive so with love and song we will peace again on the horizon of the song of the spirits of this land. for we be people , for we be song . and we sing together of a love so gone. i know this though of our people that we will again love this land and its people , and one day the spirits will cry as we all lay down and die .

    Beautiful write jenifer. Being a 1/4 Cherokee myself, this one holds a special place for me. I had to read this a few times to truly appreciate it. Thanks for sharing. -Spence

    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
