THE INDIAN Pausing now before his wigwam, Ere departing with the tribesmen For the distant snow-capped mountains, Rich in bounty for the hunter, He recalls his happy childhood, Carefree youth, a vivid memory. Once upon the hunt he's started He must make his way alone, Still he will not shun the struggle, Long and steep, the path he'll follow 'Till his quarry lies before him And he knows his quest is done. Isabel Durkee RECOLLECTION The smoke from his pipe curled into the air, For it was quiet everywhere, And his thoughts like smoke were drifting too, Rising slowly into the blue. But the blue was fading and the lake was dim, Solitude, but his thoughts with him Were awakening things he once had known, When he had not been so alone. It must have been the night that held him so, For even the breeze and his thoughts seemed slow Drifting back to a similar lake, Whose shaven surface soothed the ache Of decent sweat behind the plow, Whose shaven surface shields the vows Of his and someone else he knewg His cheeks were covered with night dew. The smoke from his pipe curls into the air, For it is quiet everywhere, And his thoughts like smoke are drifting too, Rising slowly into the blue. James Timmons
