Indian Giver the Healer

.
                                          Gatherer of Herbs
                           Storer of tree limbs, leaves, shrubs, love
                                         His cures a free gift
                 
                                         Gift of his knowledge 
                                         Free to early settlers
                                         Pharmacies use now

John Freeman Date: 12/26/2010 8:55:00 AM Many of these cures were used and did the trick Sara, which goes to prove that it is faith in Love which is the underlying real lasting healing balm. I love your take on the contest. Agape, Moses Login to Reply

Matthew Anish Date: 12/6/2010 7:40:00 PM I am quite intrested in Native american culture myself. I attend the pow - wow they have in Brooklyn every year. They are very spiritual people - and I think you are too. Peace and Blessings Matthew Anish Login to Reply

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 12/6/2010 12:04:00 PM So much truth to this poem, Sara. The FDA keeps giving approval to manmade drugs and then later taking them off the market. We could learn a lot about the healing powers of nature's gifts from the Native Americans. Awesome entry for the contest and I wish you success! Love, Carolyn Login to Reply
