Usung Heroines Sung
Unsung Heroines Sung
below in palace kitchen
over fire in wattle hut
during lunch breaks coffee chatter
or the health spa apres sweat
where ever women gather
when ever women are
comes a quiet time of voices
a calm time, feelings slowed
then silence……
for a moment gentle communion flows.
in this precious, timeless space
our bardic songs are sung.
the victories over loneliness
prejudice and fear
being out there on ones own
when no one can come near
of woman battles ever fought
and now some woman-won.
