She was a young reporter
Would do anything to advance
Her editor called her
And said he would give her the chance
He wanted her to meet
With an elder on the reservation
He wanted her to expose
Him as a fraud without hesitation
She agreed to go and see
And write an expos
But after speaking with him
Things did not go that way
She found this man to be wise
Beyond even his many years
He taught her so very much
When she left she was in tears
He told her he would always watch
Over her and they were one under the sky
She knew she had to write the truth
For she did not want his belief in her to die
She wrote of his wisdom and strength
And how he healed and cared for the poor
She showed her article to the editor
Who told her to change it or head for the door
She quit that job that day
Some things are more important
She sat to watch the sunset
And pray as he taught her to chant
Then as she looked at the horizon
She saw him standing there
He waved and walked off
Toward the setting sun so fair
As he walked he left the ground
And seemed to rise so very slow
Then to the amazement of her eyes
He became the sacred white buffalo

Oh how I love stories where the main character has integrity, which is so hard to have these days! Also her love for him prompted her to do right.......so unlike so many people today.
This poem was incredible Shari.....teaches, has emotion, integrity and Truths!
Very fine
Warm love
