Suspended miles above, on height
of dizzy death-defying span,
a Mohawk man prepares the site
for implementing steel-clad plan –
a skyscraper to lead from earth
to heaven’s altar, far above;
for skywalkers to traverse girth
and walk the path of clouds in love.

For the many Mohawk steelworkers from the Kahnawake reserve in Quebec

NICE!
Thanks! A little break from the gardening theme! 🙂
What a cool poem for the Mohawk steelworkers! What a blessing you are! Thanks for writing and sharing this, Melody!
Thanks Debbie! 🙂 I can’t help but shuddering at the thought of walking around so high up in the air….
