Title Sonnet to a Pioneer Woman
Description SONNET TO A PIONEER WOMAN Carolle Denton Starling, Utah First Honorable Mention The bonnet worn as a helmet for the Lord, Shaded eyes that saw the purpose of a trek To leave behind her home for mobs to wreck, And all for love of truth that was restored. When Indians yelled and beloved husband died, The shield of faith helped push her cart on plains, And righteousness as armor clothed blood stains From bleeding wound - though singing stopped her cries. Her song descends to echo in our ears Elijahs promise kept by clasp of hands, To span her generation to this one. Her star still guides to compensate for tears That brough her to this choicest of all lands, And blessed us with our heritage, dearlv won. - 34 -
