"Our Metis Way"
Dee Johnston's Metis Nation Family Website

"Pray that God may preserve the little Metis nation, and cause it to grow... and remain faithful to its mission. During five years thatI must pass in exile, I have only this to say to the Metis Nation , remain Metis people, become more Metis than ever." Louis Riel 1875


White Owl

I have seen her glide
As she wings 'round the skies.
Soundlessly throughout the night;
Often hearing her cries

She comes to me
This Great White Owl;
She carries with her
A message...Listen now.

She speaks to me
of life and of death.
I carry her name
Understanding each breath.

She comes by day
She comes by night.
I have learned to listen
Whenever she chooses flight.

The Great White Owl
I can feel her as she flies;
She's the one for whom I was named
With her I soar through the skies.
