He Knew My Words

He knew when I said, "Hiawatha," of what I spoke, to what I alluded. And perhaps to him a face appeared, or a voice, or perhaps an image of a place just beyond the still waters where darkness settles at the feet of Hemlock trees even on a sunny day.

He knew, and he said, "Forward, you Hiawatha of the Texas plains," perhaps as great a compliment one in our family could pay to another.
