Street Roots • March 10-16, 2017 Poetry Page 13 The Great Spirit by Sandy J. Tennyson I give you this one thought to keep. I am with you still. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on the snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning’s hush, I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight I am the soft stars that shine at night Do not think of me as gone. I am with you still in each new dawn. W itness by Daniel Cox I come from the gutter, and I am not ashamed, or worried About it. Life for me has been A grand adventure, if I be Penniless or have a full plate It is my zest, my elan.
