Diane's Poems

You are one of the Cherokee Indians

that got lost on this earth?

You were told at birth and all your life,

that your were part of the Cherokee Nation.

Were You were told not to speak of it?

Were you told someone may take you away, are even

try to kill your family?

"The One of the Cherokee Nation",

You just wondered because you parents

told you not to talk about this?

Many people of the Indians

were told not to speak of the Indian Nation.

So, all you heard was the tells

and words from your grandmother, the

Cherokee Bride

All your could hear is what she would

whisper in your ear, for she wanted you

to know , and hold you heritage so dear.

Now, an Angel of Blue, are you waiting for

others Indians like you?

You will speak silently to us, the other

Indians like you.

You want us like you, to tell our children

and grandchildren so they will pass the

truth on through the generations.

"The Love of the Cherokee, is still so True"

Oh, thank you Angel Of Blue!

I will tell my children and grandchildren just who is who.

"Thank you again, my Angel of Blue"
