Bearfoot

His bare brown weather–rugged feet walk the copper rustic sun-

drenched Earth.

The copper shaded dust, aswirl in the desert sky.

The sky vast expansive blue - a blue and a vastness longed by many

but seen by a few.

As heaven and earth unite, he walks alone, at one with all, and all is

still.

All is brother, all is mother, all is father, and all is sister.

His proud burnt brown brow aglow with the rare moisture of this 

arid land.

As his kin before him, he caresses his "mother" with a loving glance.

And his loving deep earth–brown eyes cast themselves to the endless 

blue sky,

in respect for the forever loyal Father above.

And he walks on.
