Today's prompt: Let your poem address the issue of why we tell stories.


We don't tell stories.
We are our stories, and they
tell us who we'll be.

Loved this, it made me think about tales I have percieved and been a part of.Native
Americans shared life heritage tales how they arrived into this world to compare their similarities and differences with other tribes.

simply true.

Thanks, Hilary - I love the different views we all have about who and what and why we are.

Ah Brian - I am always grateful that you read my pages and write your own so I can read them

Thanks for stopping by, Gillian :)

OOTP - perhaps it's my Native American blood that influences the way I feel

J - I always appreciate your comments :)
