Jewel's Grandmother's Poetry
I really enjoyed A Night Without Armor and after I finished it I read that Jewel's grandmother had released a poetry book or books. I found an
old post on the eda list that said one book of hers was titled Voice of an Initiate. They included one of her poems in the post. The name of it is "Prologue 1988". I posted it below. That poem and her influence on Jewel made me interested in tracking down a copy but I've had no luck finding it. Does anyone on the Forum have that book or any other? What is the poetry like ( common themes, etc. )? Would anyone be willing to sell their copy, scan it or post a few poems? "Prologue 1988" by Ruth Mariott (Kilcher) Ah yes dear friend- so newly found and in the twilight of our years- before the sinking sun has set Imagination fires our souls So lightly and so freely does the spirit bestow its favors on the ones who- more than others- speak and understand it's language happy to communicate Like children once again we watch - -amazed and awed- the splendor of celestial fires delightful and surprising in brilliance of explosion showers of sparks descend upon us from the lively interaction of a thousand sparkling fountains and breathlessly caught up in jubilant glee and cosmic celebration our hands reach out for falling stars Until we recognize that we are the Center the very Heart of Matter and Creation While eons drip from our fingertips |
