Papusza (Bronislawa Wajs) Gypsies

Comes from a group called Polish Romani Lowlands. For several centuries were travellers in Poland (thus: "Polish"), settled in 1950.

Bronislawa Wajs, whose Roma name is Papusza (Doll), is one of the world's first Roma authors. In contrast to Alexander Germano, (1893, Russia), or Matéo Maximoff, (1917, Barcelona; later, France), who wrote, edited and managed to have their own works published, Papusza owes her "discovery" and publication of her books of verses to the famous Polish poet Julian Tuwim, but primarily to the outstanding Polish romist, Jerzy Ficowski.

Song for my Son, My June Moon Baby... A birthday poem for Nicolas (Mykoltsu)

Summer skies, heady floral fragranced air
permeates my pores
breathing in
promises,
hopes and
dreams of
future happines.
Proud moments of
successful being
beam like
sun's rays from the soul
Lighting the way for
blooming blossoms to
ripen and bear witness
to life.
