Native American Postcards Poem by Marilyn Lott

Native American postcards
Have been around for many years
Depicting how it was long ago
Their lifestyle, habits and fears

The many instruments they play
Oh, you can hear the beat of drums
Your feet begin to tap
And you even start to hum

Some are humorous and make us smile
Postcards of babies, children too
Style of clothing so interesting
Photos captured so the past can renew

Beautiful ladies on some of them
And on another an old Indian chief
Stories too many to tell
Of their hardships with no relief

They are part of American history
Captured from a life so very hard
But created with tremendous heart
Are Native American postcards!
