I am Kitchi Manitou, great mystery to all, 
I thought and everything became what I saw. 
I am the woman who fell from the sky, 
I grew plants upon a turtle that kept death far from nigh. 
I am Raven, the hero of this story, 
I brought men and women together and released them of worry. 
We are the creators and shapers of life, 
And we shall never be forgotten no matter our people's strife.  

 

The following poem is part of a research project on Native American creation stories for my English class. In it, it describes important things done by Kitchi Manitou, Sky Woman, and Raven in their respective stories.
