Poesías en Inglés escritas por Michale J. Bucknum
Once I was told (or did I read)
that in the Americas there were, of course,
the tribes of people called the Native
Americans, who were of a darker complexion.
But in some parts of what is now New England,
and even in other parts, there was a race of
aboriginal people of a white complexion
who, like the Native Americans, had rich culture,
and a written and spoken language uniquely
theirs. It is true that some references to these
peoples, from today's New Hampshire, can be
found in the poetry and writings of Robert Frost.
They were an advanced race, but they
nonetheless chose to live in sheer
simplicity as an agraian civilization.
And when the Puritans came from England,
they knew, at once, they would have to adapt,
to this new influx of white peoples. They quietly
sent out representatives to the earliest Puritan
settlements, who in time, with thier innate intellectual
gifts, learned the langauge of the new peoples, English
was then disseminated to the aboriginals there
and they, in turn, shortly communicated broadly
with the Puritans, and largely intermarried into their
Puritan culture, and left their aboriginal roots behind
them.......................while being entirely assimilated
into the history and culture of the Pilgrims from the middle
years of the 17th century onwards............................
it is said that some records of the history, language
and culture of these aboriginal peoples is extant
somewhere in New England and, I was told, that
the place to find these records is in Manchester, NH
many of the leading figures in the founding of America,
from the Founding Fathers to the early Presidents, had a
bloodline going back into the aboriginal white race, and many
of our accomplished Americans (I'm not going to name names)
