That's a terrific poem, Jessica. Love the ten tribes of Israel bit...and then the ending. The poems of your uncle I've read at B O D Y and elsewhere are really fantastic!
Thanks, Carol. I had meant to write 2 or 3 poems based on my uncle but I'm 20 poems deep into a series now...it's hard work, though, writing about family.
Wow, great poem! I especially like your opening stanza -- pulling me right into the momentum.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
Thanks, Drew, for taking time to read my work and comment on it.
