White Buffalo Calf Woman

Mysticism brought the white calf into our tribal village She had a pre-plotted destiny, which we were aware of Thanks to the wise women and wise men of council fires She chose a young squaw as her own protector The girl’s name was changed by the tribal elders She is now White Buffalo Calf Woman. We recognized immediately that she was the chosen one. The calf knew what he was doing. He had been alerted about her healing powers prior to arrival. Ethereal goodness surrounds them both. Grown now, they are inseparable.

These kinds of attachments are not unusual. My niece has chickens that follow her everywhere. She calls them by name and they come. One even jumped on my lap to be petted. Highly unusual behavior for a chicken, though.

She has an unusual affinity for these beaked beings, and they know it.
