MICHAEL SNOW

Do not cry for this warrior when I am gone I will be running in fields without fences I will be drinking water that is not polluted The strength that I lost here will be found The flesh and bone lost will return in spirit I will be young and strong again Do not cry for this warrior when I am gone I will be visiting our ancestors Knowledge lost will be found anew I will truly learn the ways of the old ones I will learn the language of our fathers I will help to prepare a hearth for you Do not cry for this warrior when I am gone I will be with our brothers, the winged Our brothers, the four legged and in the sea The Great Spirit will guide my steps My path will be true, I wait for you there Do not cry for this warrior when I am gone Remember me in laughter Remember me in the song of the flute Remember me in the beat of the drum Dance for me with all your heart Fore I will be dancing with you Look in your heart and I will be there Do not cry for this Warrior I am still here In your dreams, your heart and memory I will see you again Until then. ~ Copyright 2002 Jake George (Achgook) From the book "The Red Man In Me" ~
