Native American Poem
**********************************
Sister/Brother Wolf (written to those who kill for profit)
submitted by: kogogaupigun

All Rights Reserved!
PLEASE...I MEAN YOU NO HARM

Please...I mean you no harm. If given the chance,
I will show you that there is no need to fear me.
I will not attack or kill you
unless it is to protect that which is mine.
Would you do any less?

Why do you come to my home
and then shoot me out of fear?
Would I go to yours, uninvited
and then attack and kill?

Why are you overhead in those loud machines
which frighten me and then...
when I run for cover you shoot me from above?

Why do you lay traps which hurt and then eventually kill me?
Why do you want my skins to adorn your homes and your bodies?

Why do you kill for fun?
Can't you see that I was here on this land long before you...
and that I don't mind sharing this land...

I ask only that you allow me to live in peace.

Why do you kill me for profit when I would protect you from harm?
If given the chance I would teach you of love... gentleness... loyalty...
and so much more. But you refuse to listen... to learn.

Instead you choose to hate... to fear... to hunt... to kill.
Please... I mean you no harm.

Native American Prayer
**********************************
submitted by: James White

O Great Spirit of the West,
the land of the setting Sun,
with Your soaring mountains
and free, wide rolling prairies,
bless us with knowledge
of the peace which follows
purity of striving and the freedom
which follows like a flowing robe
in the winds of a well-disciplined life.
Teach us that the end is better
than the beginning and that
the setting sun glorifies not in vain.

**********************************
Author: unknown

There was these 3 Indians, a Sioux, a Shoshone and a Chippawa.
After spending 20 years on the island the Sioux found an old looking lantern.
He rubbed it and this genie been come out.
The genie said, "Thank you for getting me out of the bottle.
For this I grant each of you one wish."
The Sioux went first, "I miss my homeland the pinenut hills so much.
I wish I could go home.
" POOF! "You wish is granted" said the genie.
The Shoshone went next, "Me too, I wish I was home.
" POOF! "Your wish is granted" said the genie.
The Chippawa went last, "Gee I dunno. I sure will miss them other guys.
I kinda wish they were here."
POOF! "Your wish is granted" said the genie.
