Uciwayeki, hear what I say. I am nitakoja ki, your Grandchild. I know you walk now with Wakan Tanka, I know you are at peace and happy. Can you see me Uciwayeki? Can you see that I am the proud woman you helped me become? Can you see that I honor you, and keep the Old Ways alive in my heart?
I will walk my Path now without you, but I will think of you always, and remember the lessons you have taught me. I will hear your voice in the rush of the rivers, and your laughter in the Eastern breeze.
Uciwayeki, hear what I say. I am nitakoja ki, your Grandchild. Can you see me as I cry for you? |
