Blessing Beads
Once more around the park please
Once more, just so i can see
The Indian child has finally found her way
By showing the world of her Indian days
The times when her life was carefree and fun
And those that were chasing she could always out run
And theirs the stolen little wayward child
whose cuss words , still can make me smile
Bicycle rides around the school
Being fastest made you cool
Once more around the park please
Once more, just so I can see
I like to know where my money spent
How much is owed and how much is lent
Its the game of life I have always played
I have gotten here, cause I don’t behave
Once more around the park please
Once more, just so I can see
So much I missed on the last journey around
Within this park that Incorporates a town
The swings the paths, the ducks and geese
Have been left here for me to see
Once more around the park please
Once more before I have to leave.
