FOR HONOR DAY (August 20th) BY Christopher J. Jarmick On August 20,2005, I wrote a special poem for HONOR DAY.. to read at the special event at the Madrona Center on Guemes Island. Enjoy: Honor sleeps around, stays in an inebriated state until no one realizes Honor has died. It seems to sit there alert but it rots and slowly dissolves into the asphalt washed into the sewers carried into the streams to stop salmon from spawning. NO. We begin again. Create a circle. Invite everyone to join hands Learn. Preserve sacred ritual for the two legged yellow sun life nature (East), black night dreams spirit (West) White snow (north) Red warmth (South) Blending seasons, people cycles. YES Never forget yesterday, or this day August 20th Honor Day. Copyright© Christopher J. Jarmick 2005. All rights Reserved. |
