Go to Life in the fast lane--where's the on ramp?Add a commentGo to An artist's story

I have always had a soft spot in my heart for the Native American and his ways.  Long ago and far away in the land of the Menominee (now Wisconsin) one of "The People" became a part of the geneology of our family.  She was my father's great-grandmother.  The tales that her son, "The Half-breed", who married a beautiful paleface woman, passed on to my father, his grandson have always fascinated me.

Beautiful, wistful and nostalgic. It takes artists to keep alive memories of a way of life that has almost completely faded into history, and your poem does its part...
