Red river, Father, red river rising, Sister. Watch as I ripen into full bloom. As a sylvan scarlett sprig does when rich, behold my napalm flowering, branches luminous with pealing flame, and, in Summer, I thrive, each petal chasing my Sky King, yearning for his tender tending, tilling, pruning, paring and shaping offering a route, a direction for my spread to beyond horizons, growing into duty, growing into purity and that red river is clear and my pinking petals spread into a heart of colour all around.
Kylie Minogue, Australian-British singer, songwriter and actress, was born today in 1968.
Maya Angelou, American Poet, singer, memoirist and civil rights activist, died today in 2014.
Today marks Menstrual Hygiene Day.
Maya Angelou one of my favorite poets.
🤨 I’ve never heard of the Hygiene Day, however the poem flows with it.
