The Raven speaks to my Cherokee Ancestor
family lore has it I am part Cherokee
but part of the lost tribe
that disappeared from history
and DNA testing apparently
but I know that I have Cherokee blood
and in the past
my ancestors were able
to the birds
the raven is speaking
to a Cherokee maiden
telling her of the coming
of the trails of tears
and she goes home
and wakes her parents
and they flee into the Ozarks
lost in time and space
and become part of the lost tribe
of the Cherokee nation
part Scottish, Irish, French, Black
and other lost souls
My mother knew the history
and told me bits and pieces
over the years
before her descent into dementia
and I imagine that her grandmother
was the one
speaking of the terrible times ahead
with the cosmic raven of the Cherokees
