Myth is the Mother of Romance: A Discussion with Montana Poets
Myth Is the Mother of Romance
by Charles M. Russell
Myth is the Mother of Romance and I am her oldest son Her family is small
just two sons thats all Brother Fiction the other one
Truth brings castles
and lakes
and perhaps Merry Englands green wood
But read books and you’ll see That ‘twas brother and me that gave men like
the bold Robin Hood
Truth gives you Christmas and stockings
but you know all you Paws and you Maws
‘Twasn’t truth you see nor Fiction nor me ‘Twas Mother that made Santa Claus
Merry Christmas
