Emily Pauline Johnson (a.k.a. Tekahionwake, “double wampum”) poet, writer, artist, performer (born 10 March 1861 on the Six Nations Reserve, Canada West; died 7 March 1913 in Vancouver, BC). Pauline Johnson was one of North America’s most notable entertainers of the late 19th century. A mixed-race woman of Mohawk and European descent, she was a gifted writer and poised orator. She toured extensively, captivating audiences with her flair for the dramatic arts. Johnson made important contributions to Indigenous and Canadian oral and written culture.

Marshlands

A thin wet sky, that yellows at the rim,And meets with sun-lost lip the marsh’s brim.The pools low lying, dank with moss and mould,Glint through their mildews like large cups of gold.Among the wild rice in the still lagoon,In monotone the lizard shrills his tune.The wild goose, homing, seeks a sheltering,Where rushes grow, and oozing lichens cling.Late cranes with heavy wing, and lazy flight,Sail up the silence with the nearing night.And like a spirit, swathed in some soft veil,Steals twilight and its shadows o’er the swale.Hushed lie the sedges, and the vapours creep,Thick, grey and humid, while the marshes sleep.

E. Pauline Johnson
