Question

From “Song of the Sky Loom” what feeling are you left with after reading this selection?

Answer 1

Answer:

The lines show respect for nature. "O our Mother the Earth, O our father/ the Sky..." These lines are showing their respect for nature. It is a characteristic of Native American literature. They respect nature as much or more than their own loved members of their family. Another line "garment of brightness" is a metaphor. The metaphor is an extended one because the light makes up the cloth, the rain makes the fringe, and the border is the rainbow. This shows that nature gives light and water for growing food. It gives the rainbow for beauty and hope.
