| Born in a time when ignorance and
superstition permeated their culture, Moon Flower was doomed within her
isolated "Tribe with no name." Her
affliction was misunderstood, casting her into the shadows where she was forced
to live until brutal events practiced by a rogue 'man of the cloth' set her on
a trail that did not exist, and eventually to a conditional freedom. At her side rode the handsome Comanche
warrior whose life she had saved, her young son and the elusive wolf that
became a part of her life.
Across the burning wasteland they
loved as they traveled in search of the warrior's tribe. Accepted with open arms, again she saved the
life of the "God-man with pieces of the sky for eyes." With his life hanging in the balance her
spirit wraps around him to give him strength to live beyond the torture that
befell him.
Safely within the Comanche arms,
Flower finally 'became', and traveled beside her husband on the war trail as
well as into captivity. Becoming a
trusted confidant of the war chief, she enjoyed a rare position from which she
could influence the decisions made on behalf of the entire tribe, even to the
point of saving them when her belly was swollen with her husband's seed and
'death appeared riding on a black horse'.
Having been forced to cross the border into the hostile land of 'the
home of the Redman', later to become Oklahoma,
she discovers that her greatest challenge was as yet still before her.
Flower's greatest loss becomes
her greatest find when she is blessed four-fold. Out of the clay banks of Red River
she taught the Comanche women to build houses and homes when there were no more
buffalo to feed and house them and the long promised government supplies were
even longer in arriving to feed the hungry and naked Native Americans.
With unbelievable strength and
perseverance the bravery of this small woman set the standard that the pioneer
woman became known for, even as the women of today stand to |
