Native Sons

These Native American dancers were dancing in 102 degree heat at the Manitou Cliff Dwellings outside of Colorado Springs. We visited there in July of 2005. I loved the colors against the red stone. More on the cliff dwellings another time.

With each new day that comes to pass.

Will the great spirit free us all at last?

He said we were the chosen ones.

For all we had there’s nothin’ left.

We won’t forgive - we can’t forget.

You know that your day will come.

My native son.

Bryan Adams, 1987
