Squaw Poem by Sally Plumb Plumb

Squaw

Rating: 5.0


My breasts carry the blue rivers
that nurse me with their blood,
my ears, the canyons of the winds.
I listen to their songs.
My eyes the storms of the sky
that cools me.....
but you, flower of the late sun,
warm me gently and bring
only lilies.





I

Very nicely delivered poem with a touch of sadness for what has passed, but calm resignation for what is to come. A pleasure to read.
