Mongolian Jack
Weatherford
Born and grew up in America
Educated and successful
Following his dreams and interest
Across the globe to Mongolia
Great Genghis Khan’s history
In his youth read and studied
Deepest recesses of his mind wondered
Secrets to be found
Pilgrimage to Mongolia
Living in a Mongolian Ger
On the dried dung fired stove
Mongolian ladies boiling milk tea
Hot drink on a freezing cold day
Listening to the herders child
Singing songs and humming
Looking down the valley camels grazing
Enjoying the steppe land view
Sitting and writing in his journal
Snacking on
curds and cheese
Sipping
on airag and relaxing
Dry hot day building thirst
Drinking lovely cold spring water
Spring time on the Orhon River
Enjoying the view of dancing Egrets
Observing a
howling gray wolf in the forest
Night sky full of sparkling stars
Holding hands with his wife on the steppes
Late winter early spring blooming
Searching for Scilla flowers
Listening to “Ohgii” lake’s cracking noise
Enjoying with his lovely wife
Through the Golden
Gobi’s Saxaul trees
By the frozen rivers blue light
Deep under the frozen surface waters gurgling
Listening with his wife, feeling wonderful
Jack’s heart fitting Mongol
Jack’s mind floating in Mongol history
Jack’s breathing
the Mongolian life style
Mongolian people appreciate and are very proud of Jack
Weatherford.
We love you Jack Weatherford.
