Imagination

Up on the rise; above the creek
Braves, boys, and Indian Chief
Sit  pow powing  as arrows do make
Food gatherer, hunter amazing feats
Catching those fish for food to eat

Higher up on top of the hill
Indian maidens use their skills
Prepare for winter by gathering in
Winter squash, dried fruits, and venison
Shared stories that have no end

(This is strictly imagination from sitting on the porch and thinking what the Indians did to 
survive.)

clever and put together well....AWESOME....Oh, and yes the "Collaboration" poem of mine is about the media frenzy surrounding Michael Jackson.. Specifically the one when he showed up to court late and in his pajamas...:JP]
