Poetry By: Lucy Bear Meeks

Our Brother

We were drawn to this sacred place a burning deep within our hearts so strong a need to join our distant cousins

He stood alone to honor Grandfather friends and family supporting him this day reminding us we are all children of Grandfather

We watched as he received his native name to be with honor and with pride our hearts beat strong for our cousin

He asked us all to join his walk to honor Grandfather for his name in this way on this day he became our brother.

We were drawn to this sacred place to help honor our new brother remembering we are all children of Grandfather.
