THE CLOUDS

The clouds are walking
     across the sky
That was
          his
Indian name
          He
walked the earth
          a thousand years
before my birth
          He
stood tall
         six foot three
Brown eyes
         Brown hair
           Brown hands
it made you warm
        when He spoke
He burned tobacco
         and sage
a thousand years
          before my birth
