13 Feb Mercy :: Poet Lucille Clifton Passes This Day
the tale the shepherds tell the sheep
Today, poet, mother, inspirer Lucille Clifton passed away at the age of 73. To honor her, we could post a description of her life and many achievements, summon her legacy with reverent words given to that of a queen, whom she was, indeed. But the only way to tell the tale, to show the true essence of Ms. Clifton would be to give you only her own words which will continue to ring inside of our hearts, come forth in the foundation of our pens, echo through our voices and those of the ones yet to be heard. Lucille Clifton, we love you, we miss you, we carry you with us always.
