NaPoWriMo #12 - Jeanne's Voices
A found poem made from the chapter headings and illustration captions found in the book “The Children’s Joan of Arc”.
Jeanne’s voices
The peasant maid of Domrémy
a baby girl
She knelt weeping and prayed
garlands of wild flowers
The battle
“I am only a poor girl”
From the cloud came
stories of the wars
“How can I be sure?”
She tried to escape
The March
The Trial
The Dauphin
The Duke
A Miracle
She prayed that she might die
“They say to me, ‘have good courage’
‘Ride boldly on’”
The death
The church nearby
The peasant maid of Domrémy
a baby girl
From the cloud came a voice
