  • My Land

    I was told this was home
    I was given it on silver plater
    They fail to tell me that I would have to steal it

    Words written on paper was crafted beautifully
    Penmanship to die for
    That was it…
    The hidden message

    To die for

    I can not take what is not mine
    Can land really be mine
    The oil and coal pillage from m…Read More

    • In Indigenous culture and belief, no one owns the land, we inherit it and are part of it and must share and protect it, leaving it in better shape for future generations.

    as it catches
    hovering over his words
    like a hummingbird

    on the intoxicating nectar
    of his expression

      • Thank you 😊 It was stupid o’clock in the morning so it’s short, but it says what’s important to me

    • For some reason I was compelled to read this from beginning to end, and then reverse from the end to the beginning. The choice of words in this hook the reader so well. Short yes, but sweet. And done with skill and vivid imagery.

    • Beautifully penned, Willow. Into the book it belongs! This a magnificent little write here my friend. I mean I really dig the wordplay and imagery. Next level good. Appreciate you.

      • This one had a lot to say with just a few words. I just went with what I felt. Thank you, my friend 😊

  • A little dream

    Clouds rolling in softly
    Delicately like a purr
    Wrapped in warm cotton
    Trailing thoughts of a time of tenderness

    Inner eye awakens to a place
    Where safety is given
    Love is freely accepted
    And a genuine smile is cherished

    Let me not wake from this
    Wanting to hold and be held
    In a world of nonreality
    Let me have…Read More
