Wyoming 2008
The 2008 Wyoming Annual Rainbow Gathering was held in the Bridger-Teton National Forest near the town of Pinedale. This Rainbow Family Circus & Tribal Zoo Wyoming 2008 addition includes 22 wonderful songs and poems recorded live and preserved in the raw. Shake a leg and rattle your bones…
In the spirit of this year’s collection, I offer a poem that came to me as I reflected upon the passing of a friend a few days before I headed out to the gathering…
Time tested names that never grow old
Foot stomping dances and fast-paced games
Crack the egg and put the pigs in the pen
It’s the blind man’s bluff to ring-a-lievo
As a variety of confections pleases every taste
Let the sun and air preserve you
For it pays to be careful growing old
Sweet and savory ways to stash your fruit
In cold, moist air
One harvest, whole family
Year-round we face to the east
Curing with salt to alter the waste
Strong and spirited hunters come and gather
A patchwork quilt that warms and waits
A braided rug transformed from the work of a day
Efforts made to survive all of life’s unexpected
Although the working horse pulls its weight
Domesticated necessity becomes a hobby
But who’s to say whether good or bad?
Especially coming courtesy from the old bossy
In cold, moist air
One harvest, whole family
Year-round we face to the east
Curing with salt to alter the waste
Homemade as homemade anything
Hand-cranked as hand-cranked everything
Nothing is without a calloused thumbprint
So pass yourself easy and remember to rest
For big thoughts and big results think small
Cuz this is out of the ordinary sugar baby
A mammoth gold from the garden to table
Like life like a seed going back home
Keep the home fires burning
Keep the home fires burning
Keep the home fires burning…
