Love, Mom and Dad Happy Belated Birthday to Grandma Darlene on July 5 and Aunt Marci on July 22. Love, Savannah, Tracey, and Willie Eagle’s Cries by Eddie E. Ehret My heart once caressing, The sky so high. For a second I thought, 1 could even fly. Back on two feet, Isn’t life so sweet. This way which I fly, No longer so high, For the distant sounds, Of an Eagle’s Cry. These distant whimpers, On this night, Is all it took, To stop the flight. With these distant cries, Deep in flight, 1 fear for another elder’s plight. My heart weeps with pain, Perhaps this fate, Was not in vain, At least it will help, To ease the pain. With our elders crossing over, Day by day, The time has now come, To learn their ways, And help create, Better days. The first day, Of the rest of our lives. And I heard the distant sounds, Of an Eagle’s Cries. August 2001 Happy 1st Birthday, Son. We love you lots! You are Mom’s handsome boy!
