This is the story of an Ojibway boy who, on hearing the call of a Loon, remembers a story of long ago. Mishomis (meaning 'grandfather' in Ojibway) comes to a peaceful, restful lake surrounded by tall, ancient trees. The place is tranquil because its sacred, and the Loon is calling because it is time for Mishomis to pass on. Closing his eyes, Mishomis sees his life first as a young boy, then as a Chief, and now as an Elder. In a moment of silence, Moon Lake Loon Lake welcomes Mishomis's spirit, and again the boy hears the call of the Loon.
