The Miracle of Morning
|
|
| Amanda Gorman has achieved many firsts, including being the first-ever National Youth Poet Laureate in the United States at age 19. On January 20, 2021, at age 22, Gorman will read at the inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden. While we do not have the text of the inaugural poem, "The Hill We Climb" yet, we have a reading here of "The Miracle of Morning" which was written several years ago "when hurricanes, hate crimes, and deportations were some of the many crises in our headlines." The poem now re-emerges during a pandemic, each line filled with words of hope for a golden morning. |

A Reset for Unprecedented Times
“We are currently living amid a planetary climate emergency, a global pandemic, uprisings against state violence upon Black, Brown, and Indigenous peoples, and a failing economic system the world over. Pandemic lockdowns have forced major lifestyle changes: shifting consumption habits, realizing how deeply connected we are to each other and the environment, and focusing more on the non-material aspects of life for strengthening our well-being. Never before in modern society have we had to redesign our lives with such speed and magnitude: how we live them, how we connect with one another, and what and how we consume. This is precisely where Buen Vivir comes in. Buen Vivir represents a combination of respect and reciprocity, community, solidarity and harmony. The idea is far from novel.” More in this essay from YES Magazine. { read more }
