Mapping Indigenous Poetry of North America, 1830-1924

Nature

The "nature" theme is the most consistent across the collected poems here. Poems which engage with literal nature imagery and nature metaphor are all marked under this tag. The nature tag has notable overlap with a few other tags, an intersection of themes which is begging to be explored: settler colonialism, love, birds, and grief.
