As April 2009 draws to a close, Ranch Rhymes features a poem by Carolyn Dufurrena, Nevada poet, writer, educator and former geologist, titled "Ghost of April, 1978."
Length: 3:42 ~ Listen or podcast from iTunes.
This original poem is about coming into a new life within the landscape of Nevada. Our recording is of Carolyn reciting it at the 2002 National Cowboy Poetry Gathering in Elko.
Carolyn and her filming partner and mother-in-law Linda Dufurrena, have several videos in our Ranch Communcations and Deep West video programs. Click here to visit our Film section.
