For a Girl Becoming

Joy Harjo

From United States Poet Laureate Joy Harjo: a luminous benediction for a girl’s journey through life, and a celebration of our connections to the world around us.  
A baby girl is welcomed to the breathing world by generations of her family and set on the magnificent journey of becoming. As she grows, she is reminded of her connections to the natural world; to her family, her ancestors, her neighbors; to the source of all magic and sorrow—and of her responsibility to uphold and honor those connections.  
With US Poet Laureate Joy Harjo’s transcendent verse, For a Girl Becoming acts as a blessing and a harbinger for a young girl’s life—and reminds those of us who still stand at the door of becoming that it is our relationships with nature and with each other that carry us through it.
