Poems
Dec 2015
Turtle Island
On a turtle's shell I awoke.
Apart the land from which we broke.
I'd miss my home if I knew.
There wasn't better beyond this blue.
Alone I'm not, our lot is few.
We'd pull up land to replace the dew.
Which collected on its back
The lowest creature formed a pact
Bringing soil from the murk
For others waiting on his work
Based on Oral tales of the Algonquin First People
