Poetry of Larry Kibby's
Portrait of a Loveliness
Beauty can be a spiritual golden eagle in flight.
Or sunsets of happy colors beautiful and bright,
Adding magnificence and splendor to a natural right,
Which welcomes a sensational elegant sight.
That could be a portrait of a loveliness in the night.
Sunrises inflame an early morning sky,
Stirring a passionate charm in ones eye,
And the spiritual heart would forever fly,
Leaving no emotional question of when or why,
A portrait of loveliness would unfold so high.
Pleasant clouds dancing over the trees,
Bringing about inspired floating leaves,
And the soft wind would charm ocean breezes
While excited snow cap waves frolic in the seas,
And the portrait of loveliness remains forever free.
The color of nature is like a golden dream,
Showing creation as it should be seen,
That all of life is magnificent and remarkably keen,
Even with brilliant sun rays and luminous moon beams.
And the portrait of loveliness indeed a romance of means.
So the portrait of loveliness will continue to be.
For all eternity to remember and see,
A genuine profile of beauty that is forever free,
A portrait of loveliness with a heart of tranquility,
For the portrait of loveliness is of a genuine reality!
Forever a solitary Indian, I’ll always remember beholding,
On a sad and lonely dark night,
A portrait of loveliness displaying a native face of beauty!

A Young Lady - Indian
Young lady,
With a golden smile,
A twinkle of beauty
In your eyes,
You are on your path
To becoming
A woman.
Young lady,
You walk with pride and dignity,
You speak with care, wisdom
And understanding,
On your way
To becoming
A woman.
Young lady,
flowing with life,
So full of energy.
You are a ray of sunshine;
You light up the path you walk,
On your way
To becoming
A woman.
Young lady,
You are Indian,
A unique breath of life.
You are warm and tender,
As smooth as silk,
And full of love,
On your way
To becoming
An Indian woman!

A Quality Woman
With hair golden brown,
Almost black,
Skin as smooth
As silk,
A calm appeal
Of Serenity,
A woman of quality;
Indian born!
With eyes as dark as night,
Eyes that give your face
A warm and caring look;
A look one knows
Comes from within,
You are
A woman of quality;
Indian born!
With features so unique,
You awake a person
Deep in thought
Aware of your presence,
You are of the heart
As you are to the soul and mind;
You are
A woman of quality,
Indian born.
As a woman
You shall
Be a wonder;
A beauty
Never-ending;
A perfect picture
Of life
As life
Should be.
You are
And always will be
A woman of quality,
Indian born!

Indian Woman, How You Dance
Woman,
With a pride
You stand so tall
In a buckskin dress
With Eagle feathers in your hand
And your hair in braids,
An admiration of beauty
You with your shawl,
For you are an
Indian Dancer.
You move as graceful
As a deer,
Quiet and daring,
And the way you spin and almost fly
Like an Eagle,
You are an
Indian dancer.
Indian woman.
You dance,
Sometimes slow,
Sometimes fast.
no matter how you dance
You carry yourself
As no other woman can.
You are an
Indian dancer.
Indian woman,
You are a symbol of beauty
When you dance,
So eloquent in your style.
You are a gift to the heart,
Soul and mind
Of those who admire you.
You are an
Indian dancer.
So for now Indian Woman,
You are unique,
A pride of our nations,
Always you are an Indian dancer,
An Indian woman.

The Indian Woman,
A Mortal Conviction of Beauty
Indian Woman,
Your are forever,
A genuine reflection of your race
With a radiant smile always upon your face,
Your individuality a loving sparkle of delight,
An intellect full of achieved power and might,
An Indian woman whose style and grace foretells,
A mortal conviction of beauty.
Indian Woman,
Your magnificence honestly secures all passion,
Satisfying the soul with subdued compassion,
Your angelic princely eyes
An Illumination of the heavenly blue skies,
You are
An Indian woman whose style and grace foretells,
A mortal conviction of beauty.
Indian Woman,
Your spirit is full of pride, honor and dignity,
A memory of ancestral infinity,
Securing the tenderness of the time,
Invoking an intimate portrait in the mind,
Your are
An Indian woman whose style and grace foretells,
A mortal conviction of beauty.
Indian Woman,
You are...
A universal shadow positioned with the relations,
A celestial body representing the sovereign nations,
And forever upon mother earth you will walk the land
Above, beyond and before all of man,
For your people know you as
An Indian Woman whose style and grace foretells
A mortal conviction of beauty and life.
