Enheduanna High Priestess of UR
Enheduanna was
the first recorded poet
as well as being
the first known author
but who of us know
she was the
High Priestess of
the sumarion city of UR
she held a high political rank,
while paving the way
for writers today
and is worthy of our praise

Thanks for reminding us that we are indebted to all those who have gone before who dared to select parchment, dip the quail into ink, carve on a stone, and to etch on bronze. You, my dear, are a "high priestess" of the word. Hugs and peace. oral
