Best Montreal Poems

Born in Greenfield Park, 89 years ago
Across the St Lawrence River from Montreal
Feel nostalgic
Last day tragic
The end to an amazing (hopefully) 89 years

Saturday, February the 14th of the year 2015
It's no Valentine's Day in the Great White North
It's the big Hockey Night in Canada
And to these fans, it's a night of epic rivalry

Saturday nights with the blue and white
Trying to play with all their might
Saturday nights with...

Montreal in the Fall

Well, sis, deal with it while bro throws a fit,
I stand, mom fusses with the new dresses,
Bro's frown much bigger, her smile, his trigger,
He stomps to changing. I glide to wearing,
I spin with pleasure. He grabs another,

On...

The sun fell like a fallen angel
A small town, a small repas de sang
We fell into a land
Where lovers hold hands

Candles shimmered
We saw our faces in cascades
We dreamed of past lovers
We looked forward to our desires

The winds wiped away our sins
As we planned even more...

An Odd Man In Montreal

There’s an odd man up in Montreal
Who’s young in the spring and old in the fall
In March—Let’er rip!
In September—Oh, my hip!
His mid-age crises he has in St. Paul

SCENT   OF   MONTREAL

Off the Place d’Armes  near the Ruelle 
Des Fortifications,  is  a restaurant small  -
Cosy with smell of garlic with all :
Makes me hungry and want to sit a spell.

Every dish is  a delight: ...

1947 Ford and Chevys passing striding horses
identical street cars at the corner
shops with piling in people
purses swinging in the rain

street clocks announcing four thirty
minions off work walking toward home
bicyclist meeting motorcyclist
Peel and St Catherine are alive

I watch from my window
two tandem horses
wearing blinders
having no idea...

Heartache of angels
crying 
on the shoulder 
of Mother, 
on droopy skies,
of vanilla grey.
Fruits of light
dangle from trees,
Lighting 
the vanilla 
of the night.
Highways 
filled with horns,
stuck in traffic.
Everyone 
chats in whisper.
No piping 
from the whistler,
moving carts 
for hordes
in the caves,
rolling thousands
by minutes.
Plenty talk 
with paranoia
some read,
some...

a rising sun nowhere to be seen
autumn clouds hang overhead
montreal dreary skies weigh down
metropolis threatened under siege
skyscrapers reach but come up short
smothered by a blanket of grey
unfurled over a sleepy cityscape
everyone scurries helter skelter
seeming cold and eerily distraught
autumn colors peppered about
in a panoramic october slumberfest

A dampened spray; a slapping sheet
Tar and gravel; my bare feet
A windy view of rooftop world
The deeping sky with clouds unfurled

An outlined fort of broken bricks
A winding lane of artists' tricks
The army of the parking lot
Wanders home, its battles fought

A Sunday park, an emerald pond
The...

Traffic cones here

She is most like her age

Time having eroded some of her natural beauty

A few warts have appeared here and there in spots

Yet there is this blend of young and old alike melded into one

She has transformed herself from bilingual to multi-lingual

Despite this her character has...
