Notes About The Poem

 

 

 

 

Listen to poem:

Sudbury's Moon Surface

I was in grade five when we moved up north to a remote miners' town. 
Even my memories are dull. I escaped as soon as I could ~

                                           never looking back
                                           harsh inclement land
                                           nickel left behind

Timothy Mcguire July 22, 2020 at 4:36 PM This whole piece is great. From the picture and the title, the words and the lingering feeling of how you felt so many years ago. What power you wield with your words is amazing. So well done! Line Gauthier July 23, 2020 at 10:57 AM Thank you for the most appreciated compliment, Timothy.

Aqua Marine July 19, 2020 at 2:36 PM Even the artwork leaves one cold...a short haibun that says it all, and the haiku is excellant. Warm regards, Aqua M. Line Gauthier July 22, 2020 at 10:49 AM Thanks, Aqua. Much appreciated ~
