Poems & Dramas
by Weeping Skye

Jon D. Welch is my given name, of Scot/Irish/Pre-American decent.  I have to wear a plaid loin cloth.  Everyone thought I should have an "Indian" name so I gave my self one: 

Weeping Skye 

The "Weeping" is from Jeremiah 9:1, "Oh that my head were waters, and my eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people!"

My people being our First Nations People ... Indians.  The "Skye" just seemed to fit.  I have named my youngest son Elijah Skye.  I am a licensed Baptist minister and have done mission work in Oklahoma with different tribes. 

I mostly write poetry, I just let it reflect my life...for the most part.  Enjoy them.
