On the southern shore of Ontario
At the crack of dawn
With Tuck
Man and beast stroll
Eastward along the beach
Old Man Tucker reverts in an instant
To his puppy-self
We romp in the sand
Play fetch with sticks
Then hike up trails
Where the Haudenosaunee roamed
Hubdreds of years ago,
For hundreds of years
We are breathing in the crisp morning
And I am praying
And reflecting on the Iroquois feet
That trod the same paths as my own

We are breathing in the crisp morning
And I am praying
And reflecting on the Iroquois feet
That trod the same paths as my own
Early Saturday morning, with my dog
