Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Rebecca Harding Davis

Rebecca Harding Davis wrote
Of religion and politics,
New freedoms of Bible and vote,
A stirred sainting and sinning mix.
Life was dominated by man
In West Virginia wild frontier,
In the 1800's time span.
Woman with ideas - men did fear.
Rebecca spoke least, but wrote most.
Her writings might be gone but for
The Saturday Evening Post
That archives perspectives of yore.

So to the Post Rebecca sent
Time capsules for future reprint.
