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.
