			Two Years Old! Vintage Colorado Poetry Poem of the Week October 17, 2005
		From the 19th century, Whitman offers a fitting salute to Colorado's men, women, and children. Times have changed but Coloradans -- born here or moved here -- are still "breaking trail" for a better life.
	Excerpt             from              "Pioneers!  O Pioneers!"        Colorado men are we, From the peaks gigantic, from the great sierras and           the high plateaus, From the mine and from the gully, from the hunting           trail we come,                        Pioneers!  O Pioneers!                               ---Walt Whitman               Home / Archives / Previous Poem of the Week
