Red Earth Celebration

t was the Red Earth celebration So exciting with the sights and sounds Colorful and so creative The most unique festivity I’ve found Dancing to the beat of the drums Going back into ancient times It is a big part of American history We need to be reminded sometimes The princess so sweet and so pretty Smiled as she rode along Dancers continued to entertain To the beat of a traditional song Their hearts were full you could tell Pride in their ancestors I know I love to watch their festivities As down the street they go They tell a story of survival Strength found in body and mind Courage of an ancient warrior Negativity is left far behind It’s a thrill to be part of this tradition For they have a message to tell I feel blessed to watch the procedures And appreciate their struggles as well!
