A MOTHERS ROLE WITHIIN THE TRIBAL FAMILY She is a warrior in her own right Guardian Protector Of all that is hers The teacher of all things To her family The tribe The hunter and gatherer Out there in the front line With men gathering in the spoils of victory Over Buffalo and Bison With their child strapped In the papoose The Warrior mother Has no liking for material objects Her mind only set on what is really required Warmth, shelter, their blankets and clothing And all importantly the food for the family Is enough for this warrior mother She claims no fame There is no gain For she is part of the entire Tribal family This warrior mother Will never put herself above anyone else Will always be there for others in need This mother’s role Is the teacher of all that once was From generation to generation Stories to be told Legends of warriors Forefathers and foremothers Telling the stories Of how life can be Making the children ready For their own life’s Ventures Adventures And Histories © Helen Moule 1st May 2012
