5.0 out of 5 stars
A compendium of poetry that is hardship descriptive,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: White Feather: A Journey To Peace (Hardcover)
To put it simply, Suzanne Stutman is a truly gifted poet whose verse reveals universal stories of trauma and empowerment . These are poems especially commended to the attention of those who have suffered abuse, as well as for those who have simply lost their way. With an economy of words and with an ultimate sense of celebration and self-discovery, this is a compendium of poetry that is hardship descriptive, life-affirming and heart-healing. My Song: I am a child.//I know only/the sky and/the earth and/the sun.//My world is/the people who/love me,/Or who do not.//When I cry,/the world/does not listen.//It thinks/that/my cries/are not important,/that my tears/are in/a/Different language.//I know only/that/I am hungry.//I am frightened.//I am cold.//I am weary/beyond my years.//I may die,/never knowing/the/Joy/of life.//When you sanction/my country,/you sanction me.//You tell me/that/I don't exist.//That/I am worth /nothing./ That my song, sailing/like a kite/over blue waters/will never be/heard.
