Doris M Holden - Writings

The Contributors Club - Man Proposes
"Woman is warrior's mate,
‘Let her bear sons;
Bid her provide us men
To feed our guns."
Silent the Woman went
{None saw she smiled)
Crooned cradle-songs of peace
Over her child.
Sang him that love is strength,
Hatred a sin,
Whispered to dawning mind:
"AlI men are kin.”
"This is no cannon-food
Woman, of thine:
“May, you forgot," she said,
Six years were mine.”
