NATIVE MOONS
Cheyenne  Moon
When Wolves Run Together




Submitted By NiteSunn

Long ago, an old wolf came to that time when his life on earth could last no
longer. "My people," he said, "You can follow in my footsteps when the time
comes for you to join me in the skyland." Then he left the earth, climbing
higher and higher, and in each place he stepped, the sky filled with stars.

Shunk man-i-tu tan-ka we call the wolves, the powerful spirits who look like
dogs. When they climb the hills to lift their heads and sing toward that
road of stars, their songs grow stronger as they join their voices.

So in this moon we climb the hills and lift our eyes toward the Wolf Trail.

Joseph Bruchac and Jonathan London
 
QUOTE OF THE ISSUE



Contrary to popular belief, education - the transmission and acquisition of knowledge and skills - did not come to the North American continent on the Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria.  Education is as native to this continent as its Native People.                                Henrietta V. Whiteman (Cheyenne)
