DREAMCATCHER
|
This poem was written one Christmas to accompany the several Dreamcatchers Ed made as gifts that year. I got the pic off of the Wikipedia article about Dreamcathers
Mythology is on my mind today because I uncovered several of my mythology books during the major rearranging of our room that I described on Friday's post. Among them the four volume set of Joseph Campbell's Masks of God and Clarrisa Pinkola Estes' Women Who Run With the Wolves. I found spots for all of these today where they will be in plain sight and easy to access. I feel a major myth gormandizing coming on.
7 tell me a story:
This was great, because it really captures at least what I know about dream catchers.
I like dreamcatchers and I like this poem!
Beautiful poem, Joy!! Did you check out my post? I sent you a thinking blogger award for making me think! =) Red
"Dreams unwelcome
Burn to ash with
Dawn's fire."
Lovely! I like the short length of the piece - it gives it more power.
Lovely poem.
I don't think it could be any more perfect.
I've been lurking via my reader, so I've been following the room redo. Glad you found some books and inspiration from them; can't wait to see what you come up with!
i loved this Joy - especially since my story has a dreamcatcher used to trap a character. All the Campbell books are fabulous and of course Women Who Run with Wolves is a must read for all women.
