Geronimo & one question

I was warmed​

by the sun,​

rocked by the winds and​

sheltered by the​

trees as other​

Indian babes.

​

I was living peaceably​

when people began to​

speak bad of me.

​

Now I can eat well, sleep​

well and be glad. I can go​

everywhere with a good​

feeling.

​

The soldiers​

never explained​

to the government​

when an Indian​

was wronged,​

but reported​

the misdeeds of​

the Indians.

​

We took an oath not to​

do any wrong to each​

other or to scheme against​

each other.

​

A cannot think that​

we are useless or​

God would not have​

created us.

​

There is one God​

looking down on us​

all. We are all the​

children of one God.​

The sun, the darkness,​

the winds are all​

listening to what we have​

to say.

​

When a child, my mother​

taught me to kneel and​

pray to Usen for strength,​

health, wisdom and​

protection.

​

Sometimes we​

prayed in​

silence,​

sometimes​

each one​

prayed aloud;​

sometimes an​

aged person​

prayed for all of​

us… And to ​

Usen.

​

I was horn on the praires​

where the wind blew free​

and there was nothing to​

break the light of the sun.

​

I was born where there​

were there​

were no​

enclosures.
