| As My Brother by � eaglespirits02 There were many Red souls waiting in line to enter into The Gates of Indian Heaven Many people died from the bitter cold of winter that day When one Indian gentleman became next in line to speak to his Maker, He stepped aside so the rest could go ahead After all the other Red souls had entered, The man was still standing, waiting His Maker asked him why he didn't step forward for his turn to enter The man looked up above his head "Well Sir, I'm waiting for my brother He should be along soon as I wish to wait here for him If that's fine with you Sir" His Maker checked the list of names to enter that day Only one name was not marked off "You're the last Red soul on my list for today I'm certain your brother has more time left on earth" Then the gentleman stepped in front of his Maker ready to enter "I'm glad you decided to enter with the other Red souls From your own Tribe I'm sure your brother will find you when it's his time To take his journey home" "Oh, but my brother has arrived I said that I'd wait here for him and I meant to keep my word" The man entered into Indian Heaven with a smile on his face "Thank you for letting me wait for my brother" His Maker said with a puzzled look, "But no one is walking beside you, no one can I see" "No Sir, my brother soars above my head He soars into my soul The Eagle soaring above my head is as my brother We survived our time on the Red earth together and chose to do the same here" Anne Leach |
