Earth and Turquoise, the poem

Some time back, I posted my most recent wall piece, Earth and Turquoise. It is based on a poem by N. Scott Momaday. Today, Jen told me that she had found her tape and transcribed the poem on her blog! Click here to go read it on Jen’s blog. Oh my goodness…..what words, what imagery! And I’m thrilled that I made corn stalks on it, and then in the poem—unbeknownst to me at the time—he talks about planting corn! So would it be too corny (pun NOT intended) beyond words for me to try to contact Mr. Momaday and share a picture of my quilt with him?????

To see the original posts on Earth and Turquoise, click on the link in the side bar (on the right of the screen) for the January Archives and scroll to January 25 and 29. Just to remind you, though I added the picture at the top. In deference to not being arrested, I removed the stripey feather, which a friend found in the woods and is apparently a hawk feather, and therefore not legal to possess. Sigh.
