Culture Series: Midnight Star
by Marilyn L. Lindemann
The Culture Series celebrates the past as legacy, the present as contemporary expression, & the future as continued tradition as vibrant & expressive people groups share the essence of their culture. Every ethnicity has a story to tell. The treasure from a long unopened trunk, knowledge of the Creator, newly discovered artifacts in cave or trail, a baptismal gown passed down generation to generation, a precious & skillfully crafted arrowhead, perhaps oppression- all a heritage to treasure. Precious gifts from ages past to the future generations: where we came from to whom we have become.
Alive with firelight, fringe rhythmicly keeps the beat. Echoing across the miles, the drum awakens the moon & this dancer's lofty rival & namesake, Midnight Star.
