Sherlene Stevens: Indian Children (Poem)

Printed without additions for modern language or historical events. Indian Children Where we live and work and play each day, Indian children used to play-- All about our native land, Where the shops, public buildings and houses stand. And the trees were very tall, And there were no streets at all, Not a church and not a steeple-- Only woods and Indian people. Only wigwams [a housing style] on the ground, And at night bears prowling round-- What a different place today, Where we live and work and play! -Annette Wynne Note: November is Native-American Heritage Month in the U.S.A.
