'My Name is Dancing Shadows'Born into a world full of pain, hatred & violence, body &spirit of a warrior, but the wantings of a suckling babeVoices I hear in the wind whose words I do not catch, the mysterious knowledge to be shared, Grandfather where are you now, for the old ones spoke but I did not listen, now my bow is broken and my arrow is bentWhere are the days of childhood happiness & care free wonderment, where has the buffalo gone? Grandmother take me into your arms & show me life again for my feather has fallen & all seems like it is lostMy cry is one but many waiting to be heard, to climb the eagles back to sing songs of glory for this I can only hope, I walk the shadow of the wolf sharing his loneliness & sorrowGreat wonders we have seen together
