The animals call to
one another to find each other and to regroup, and to live and grow.
As with them, we have a call. The following is a call from one band member
to another.
The Remains of a Fire
There is a hill somewhere with the remains of a fire.
Embers once red and hot lie there cold and black
Evidence that we were part of a tribal people.
In the cold, we sat
and ate
and talked.
The elements were a part of us
and we a part of them.
The smoke once rose from that fire
into the heavens giving back the heat
that came from the sky.
Time and years come together at the fire.
Where young and old,
past and future
lived together as if all were now.
In the now cold embers
a voice says remember me when I'm dead.
Part of a people who are no more
Part of a life that is no more
Unless each of us remembers a fire.
This call composed by Lark Ritchie #275
What Is This Little Poem About?
It is about us; about you and me, and our people. What is
it that we are? What is it that makes us a people? For me, it is what we
do, the memories of, and the meanings behind what we do. Those doings,
those memories, and those meanings have been handed down to us from our
mothers and our fathers in such quiet ways that sometimes we forget that
they are in us, and how we learned them. When we forget, we lose ourselves,
and we lose our sense of a people. We lose our meaning. The thing many
people call "identities". You and I are much the same. We have much of
the same backgrounds. Let me try to explain.
I am a hunter. My father was a hunter, and his father
was a hunter. Their relatives and neighbours and friends were hunters.
Guys like Doc Potts, and Alec and Johnny Bain, and Jim and Lornie McWatch,
Jimmy, George and Billy McCauley, Jimmy Cachagee, Amon Saylors, and many
others. I know each had their reputations, but underneath, they were something
special. They were more than hunters. They were guides. They were Chapleau
Cree. They were and are, and we are, descendants of the people of Moosenee
and Moose Factory, and the areas around James Bay; of men and women and
children who paddled to Chapleau to continue their lives near the shores
of the river that brought them here; where the water linked them to their
original homes.
Because my father was a hunting guide and tourist outfitter,
my brothers and I were most fortunate to be introduced to many of these
men in the roles that gave them the respect they earned and deserved. Some
of them we knew only a brief time, many we sat with at night, around a
campfire, outside a tent, either hunting, white fishing, or guiding American
hunters. We lived together for weeks at a time.
From them, I learnt about things so important, so quiet,
and so strong. What they taught me, I would like to remember to you at
some other time.
One of the most important things I learned from them was
to remember. Not to remember names and places, and events, although some
I do, but to remember the meanings of those things they taught me. Those
I was told to remember well. I tried to do that. For them.
Who am I? What am I? I am a bear hunter. I am a moose
hunter, I am a guide, I am a being of nature, I am a Cree. I am a Chapleau
Cree. And in this poem I ask you to remember who you are, and who and where
you are from. So that we do not lose our selves and ourselves.
