SOUTHERN POETRY

CATEGORY

just different

Views: 197

 "When I consider Southern Poetry, the soft breeze of grace and majesty of the Old South comes back, like a long ago paradise of flowers, cotton fields, hanging trees and song birds, a sweat savor. Christian Southern Gentlemen and their Ladies Fair, their majestic columned plantation homes; happy children playing before them. But I am reminded also of Confederate Warriors suited for battle, in long gray lines, defending our Southern homeland. Southern Poetry allows me to relive as it were, our history, heritage and culture, like a weary warrior returning for a respite from the ravages of war, but for a moment, return to the splendor, grace and the nobility, a collective memory buried deep within the heart of the South.
My memories are endless. Many are detailed in "RUM GULLY ROOTS", published by Xlibris Publishing House.

i DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY. Edna, it is VERY disrespectful to enter a site labelled "urban poetry" and reminisce about the good ol' days. Those "southern gentlemen" that you talked about belonged to a so-called Christian organization also known as the Ku Klux Klan. Confederate soldiers? Really, Edna? I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt about those "hanging trees" Bob Marley sang "Could You Be Loved?" If you're not part of the solution- you're part of the problem. Aquarius Khan

you are right. Our generation has hatred over our past ancestors. Most of us, only the sickos. Trying to start make amends. Life is not fair. Our ancestors were not fair, Forgive us for what our ancestors did. I and most like me have only love.Most of us are 'trying' to be part of the solution.
