Native American Indiantribute

Americans without doubt a giver
Navajo secret code did deliver
  To Hitler De Fuhrer
   Messages never clear
Red men spoke jumbled arrows of quiver!

Adolf’s lust thrust, the Indian giver
Receives back miseries he delivers!
   In arrow toting brothers
   Military discovers
God's quest in those saving mouths of quivers! 

Native brother’s saving grace delivers
By blessed mouths filled of spoken quivers!
   Now they ride the constrained range
   Without horse or pocket change
Long since lost from sight those medal slivers!

For Contest:Indian Giver~Limericks

I have a great love for the Indigenous Tribes of the America's. Especially the United States. Between the years 1942 - 1945, every assault the US Marines conducted in the Pacific, were coded in the Navajo dialect. Terrific Limerick Mr John Freeman, you've done them proud. Have a lovely Sunday....:)
