Even though I'm not Mormon and probably didn't pick up on the Mormon theology, this was such a beautiful poem with subtle yet beautiful imagery. I think my favorite lines were "to run hand in hand with you/our mothers' mother's mother's/at our back."
"A poet is, before anything else, a person who is passionately in love with language." - W.H. Auden
"You, who have all the passion for life that I have not? You, who can love and hate with a violence impossible to me? Why you are as elemental as fire and wind and wild things..." — Gone With the Wind
