Yellow Sky
to Peace on the Prairie...
The day he was born
Yellow filled the Sky.
As if to bring
a reminder to the Tribe.
That answers could be found
with one simple glance,
That time would gift
his people one more chance.
To grow and learn
from Great Spirit’s Grace,
To exist within the realm
of our Earth Mother's space.
For others would appear
across the open prairie
that would change their knowledge,
and the lessons could be many.
A name should be chosen
that would Honor the Red Race.
This child may hold
the key for this chase.
A day will appear
on the distant horizon.
Then his task will begin
as a Two-leggeds son.
To find a way
to bridge the gap
Was said to be
his destined task.
No other name
could suit this young One,
For what he was called would bring
quite a special Medicine.
Time would prepare Him
for the days ahead,
and many would join
with Ancient wisdom to shed.
A vision was seen
the morning he arrived
That he would be one
to help his People survive.
The Honor for which
his life would pass by
Is why this child
was named “Yellow Sky”.

I loved this piece -it was like I was a witness to this miracle -your poem has this lovely involving air about it- you feel swept in it's wake- a most impressive write- gives me a very mystic feel about it

This was a very insightful piece, and spiritual indeed.
The rhyming was okay for the most part, though (in my humble opinion) it fell short a few times, especially with the meter.
Other than that, I enjoyed the read.
Thanks for sharing with us, and welcome to Allpoetry! I hope you enjoy all the site has to offer.
Best wishes to you,
Stacy
