| Her Red Eyes by � eaglespirits02 The kids were asked to draw A picture of the great outdoors The sun and maybe some clouds Across the blue sky One little girl Drew in her sky A big Eagle The clouds were in the shape of the Eagle feathers The houses were Teepees The dog was a buffalo The ground she colored red The people were brown With long black hair The Teacher asked the girl Why she didn't draw what Is really out there to see No one else saw those things She gave her a failing grade on her paper The girl said with Pride in her eyes, her voice.... I was asked to draw A picture of the outdoors These things are what I see With my Red eyes You can give me a failing grade if you like But my drawings will always be the same I see the world differently than you This you will never change Guess as long as I see with my Ancestors eyes, I will fail in yours |
