RuthG wishes you the merriest of Christmas revelries!

write 20 poems about Colombia (read all 17 entries…)
15 & 16 3 years ago

No. 15, written on Good Friday, is a Good Friday poem (both lamentation & hope), a preposition poem (part of the other series that I started)—& Colombia entered it unexpectedly. It is called “Upon, Unto.”

No. 16, written tonight, is dedicated to the Nasa people of Northern Cauca. The stories told by our houseguest, a member of that community, have thoroughly inspired me. This poem is called “Family stories” & the main character is Mother Earth.

The image is a chumbe weaving, traditional Nasa art.
