    After reading the poem "Remember" by Joy Harjo, I think that that the poem talks about how everything on the earth is connected. I get this belief after reading about how the writer tells people to remember how the earth is our skin and that the wind speaks. Thru out the poem I found multiple ways the writer tells about how we are all connected to each other and that all living things are connected. For example in the first two lines of the poem the writer says "Remember the sky that you were born under, know each of the star's stories"(Harjo 1-2). To me it sounds like the writer wants us to remember how we were all born under the same sky and that each of us has seen the stars above us.…
