The Drumbeats Echo
 
Leaving tracks in eons of dust
Ancestors still walk in pace
Disregarding time and space
I too walk among them
Almost seeing their faces
 
And they in their moccasins
Mingle their tracks with mine
Blessed by our ancient bloodline
Heritage whispers softly in my ear
From their ancient truths to me here
 
Voices on the wind
Chanting in rhyme
They in their gone away time
And I present here in mine
Communicating without a sign
 
Their old haunting drumbeats..
Echoed by this heart of mine
