A Different
Time
If
you
could
look
through
our
guarded
stare,
You
would
see
life in all it's
pain and
glory,
The
laughter,
the
joy,
our
shimmering
tears,
tell
our
story...
We
are
a
mystical
people,
If
we
never
say
a
word;
Our
emotions
can
still
be
heard,
Above
our
silence...
Although
our
thoughts
are
rarely
spoken,
Our
spirits
cannot
be
broken...
That
oppression
happened
in
a
different
time.
Right
here,
Right
now;
Our
prayers
are
carried
upon
the
wings
of
an
eagle,
Our
memories
run
with
the
black
tailed
deer,
Our
hopes
echo
within
every
newborn
cry
we
hear.
Our
history
is
so
much
more
then
prairie
dust,
Trust.
We May Never
Say A Word;
But Our
Emotions Will Still Be Heard,
Above Our
Silence....
Within The
Hearts Of Our Children,
Our Thoughts
Are Always Spoken,
Their Pride
and Spirit Shall Never Be Broken!
This Is A
Different Time.....
