This collection of poems delves into the essence of life in Canada: a nation rich in history, diverse landscapes, and vibrant culture. Through the eyes of its writer, the Great White North is brought to life in a tapestry of experiences, memories, and history. From the rugged coastlines to the vast prairies, and from the bustling cities to the serene wilderness, this collection captures the spirit of a country.
“I reduced the stars from their heavenly maze
Like magic that masks the mathematician’s skill
Or the illusionist’s trick that traps an ignorant man
To marvel at some sorcerer’s will
I dared to dream of stars to capture thus
With my filtered plates and their golden arc
And hear my mark like some winsome sonnet, ring
And resonate through the superstitious dark.”
