It's a map of something, and even though I think I have not been therehave only been similar placesthe map is itself lovely. Before you know what kindness really is you must lose things, feel the future dissolve in a moment like salt in a weakened broth. What you held in your hand, what you counted and carefully saved, all this must go so you know how desolate the landscape can be between the regions of kindness. How you ride and ride thinking the bus will never stop, the passengers eating maize and chicken will stare out the window forever. Before you learn the tender gravity of kindness, you must travel where the Indian in a white poncho lies dead by the side of the road.

Home August 05, 2005 A Poem by Naomi Shihab-Nye Kindness Before you know what kindness really is You must lose things, Feel the future dissolve in a moment Like salt in a weakened broth. What you held in your hand, What you counted and carefully saved, All this must go so you know How desolate the landscape can be Between the regions of kindness. How you ride and ride Thinking the bus will never stop, The passengers eating maize and chicken Will stare out the window forever. Before you learn the tender gravity of kindness, You must travel where the Indian in a white poncho Lies dead by the side of the road. You must see how this could be you, How he too was someone Who journeyed through the night with plans And the simple breath that kept him alive. Before you know kindness as the deepest thing inside, You must know sorrow as the other deepest thing. You must wake up with sorrow. You must speak to it till your voice Catches the thread of all sorrows And you see the size of the cloth. Then it is only kindness that makes sense anymore

If you tilt your head just slightly Her father, a middle-class Palestinian from Jerusalem, lost his home and everything he owned in 1948. He put down roots in St. Louis, Missouri, where, in 1952, Naomi Shihab was born. The author of many books of poetry and young adult fiction, Nye was a National Book Award finalist for 19 Varieties of Gazelle: Poems of The Middle East, One of her young-adult novels, Habibi (available through the AET book club as is her Space Between Our Footsteps ), is based on her experiences as a teenager in the West Bank in the mid-1960s, when her father decided to return to live in his native land. (The outbreak of the Six-Day War in 1967 sent him back to America to stay.)

The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books: True Blue Each month we offer a focus on a particular author or artist. Sometimes we use this space to discuss a rising new talent or an established star, but we also like to celebrate those who now live on only in the rich legacy of their books. See the archive for focus pieces from previous months. Naomi Shihab Nye I had the pleasure of seeing Naomi Shihab Nye when she addressed the Champaign Children's Literature Festival as the keynote speaker in fall of 2001. Her presence was calm and clear, like a still pool of water, and her manner of speaking was soft and low, but her words were passionate as she spoke of her love of poetry and the power of the written and spoken word to uplift us all. Nye's career as a poet was solidly established with her poetry written for adults long before she came back to the remembered delights of children's literature as an author. She describes the birth of her own child as one step in this return: "One of the delights of having our son was that it was now legitimate for me to return to that part of the library I so loved when I was young." In her poetry, Nye captures everyday details of life in all their simplicity and complexity. She balances her own perspective with a keen sense of the impact of details in the life of a child, which gives her work immediate accessibility for a young audience. In her poem Spinning (from the book

79. The Poetry Center At Smith College In naomi shihab nye s first volume of poems, Different Ways to Pray naomi shihab nye says the primary source of her poetry has always been local life, http://www.smith.edu/poetrycenter/poets/nnye.htm

Poems by Naomi Shihab Nye Muchas Gracias Por Todo Fold For Mohammed Zeid of Gaza, Age 15 In Naomi Shihab Nye's first volume of poems, Different Ways to Pray (Breitenbush Books, 1980), she writes, "My grandfather told me I had a choice./Up or down, he said. Up or down./He never mentioned east or west." A compiling of life's choices, and the decision to fulfill them all, comprise a sort of ars poetica for Nye. This restless strain, seeking to encompass more than the poet sees around her, runs through Nye's words and those of her speakers, across continents and generations. She calls herself a "wandering poet," and, growing up in St. Louis, Jerusalem and San Antonio, she has spread her own roots wide. Nye writes with a deep affection for people and places, while always remaining conscious of the social, spatial, and personal rifts that tear us apart, and keeping an eye toward the volcano in whose shadow we all live, telling it soothingly, "We would be happy if you slept forever." William Stafford has said that Nye's poems "combine transcendent liveliness and sparkle along with warmth and human insight," while the The Grand Rapids Press adds, "When she exhales, the world becomes different. Better."
