Aboriginally
Aboriginals have a special connection with everything that is natural
We see ourselves as part of nature and nature is we.
This is told through dreaming; a belief that long ago these natural creatures started human life.
Then after all natural things were in their place they became features
On the earth and sky, where they still are today.
My People believe this, I believe. It is our story of a true Aboriginal.
