Warrior’s Spirit

Warriors today fight many wars here at home and on distant shores
They are still determined, brave as in the past and honor bound
Still they protect and guard the weak just as Warriors of the past
Using their principals, honor, and dignity to keep them strong to stand their ground
Our Warriors today may not wear buckskins or paint up their face it’s true,
They do not carry bows and arrows, or ride a horse to battle with lance in hand
And today they may wear jeans, t-shirt, skirt, or suit and tie,
Many wear an Armed Forces uniform in which to bravely make their stand
Warriors battle everyday with knowledge from the past and with present new ways
Fighting global warming and environmental foggy haze
While still fighting indifference and apathy daily they will battle on
Using their minds and many new weapons invented in our time and days
Though today they have the same burdens as our Warriors of past
And many new wrongs to right, they will fight fiercely and not give in
For now they come from many Tribes and Clans to fight to make things right
Together, day by day, month by month, year by year they fight to win
Warriors never forget ancestors are always close to guide
They know to listen with all their senses, to see not with just their eyes
To look for answers within and all around and seek council when they need
To do all they can for the people and Mother Earths land with truth and not lies
