and her lovers will harvest honey and thyme and the woods will be wild with the wonder of it../// lovely verse

the poem has dynamic meaning to me

wow superb sweetest, wonderful and beautiful writings She has waited patient as a nun for the second coming, when she can break through gray hairs into blossom............

The more I read this woman, the more I understand my nature. She was a blessing to women and men too if they would listen and ponder the wisdom of her life experiences

A beautifully descriptive write by the poet. She is fast becoming one of my favorites!

I know other poems of Lucille Clifton - some of them are my all time favorites. This poem is a new one for me. I am bouyed by it. This - This is how I feel! I will love this poem forever!

Wow! I love this poem. Always have, always will. Each time I read it I am blown away by the power and the passion that Clifton speaks with. She is an amazing poet. I think a life lived by her poetry, would be a life well lived.
