  • Summary

  • “Remember” by Joy Harjo as read by Sujata Noronha

    Remember the sky that you were born under,
    know each of the star’s stories.
    Remember the moon, know who she is.
    Remember the sun’s birth at dawn, that is the
    strongest point of time. Remember sundown
    and the giving away tonight.
    Remember your birth, how your mother struggled
    to give you form and breath. You are evidence of
    her life, and her mother’s, and hers.
    Remember your father. He is your life, also.
    Remember the earth whose skin you are:
    red earth, black earth, yellow earth, white earth
    brown earth, we are earth.
    Remember the plants, trees, animal life who all have their
    tribes, their families, their histories, too. Talk to them,
    listen to them. They are alive poems.
