YAZZIE, Timothy L.


The Navajo - Hopi Observer, Flagstaff, Arizona Tuesday, March 10, 2009 He is not dead... I cannot say, and I will not say That he is dead. He is just away. With a cheery smile, and a wave of the hand, He has wandered into an unknown land And left us dreaming how very fair It needs must be, since he lingers there. And you - oh you, who the wildest yearn For an old-time, and the glad return, Think of him faring on, as dear In the love of There and the love of Here. Think of him still as the same. I say He is not dead - he is just away.
