We Are One
Red and white glory freely flies Mapleleaf, strong and proud, framed by bright blue skies From glacier fjord to mountain stream Over fields of gold and trees of green Nothing is more beautiful to see Than that red maple leaf flying free The simple flag is our greatest treasure, Heralding a nation beyond measure There is nothing I would rather be than an honored...

Premium Member WE ARE CANADIAN, EH?
WE ARE CANADIAN, EH? We came across the Bering Strait twelve thousand years ago. We didn't linger long up there – 'twas 99 below! We wandered south while looking for a Timmy's 'round each bend, Just something in our DNA - we are Canadian! We are our Founding Fathers, crashed the party Charlottetown, We reached a pact – led...

From the mid-1950's thenceforth to the mid-seventies in the Great White North, over the course of many moons, there came from this country some really great tunes. For those of us young at heart (or not-so-old) we had Neil Young's Cinnamon Girl and Heart of Gold. And when they were at their very peak, The Band sang The Weight and Up on...

Premium Member Flock Plus One
Flock Plus One Crouching among a gaggle of dabbling Canadian geese, a brown skinned child pushes back long black hair, intent on building a tidal pool of which he can be King. Extending a ridiculously long neck, a goose wades gingerly into the water, snapping his wings forward in a fluster, indignant with the cold. Another approaches the boy curiously, black eyes assessing the construction; haughtily disinterested, it continues...

Who's Calling
The doorbell rings It's you, so "Hi" My friend I love To pass time by.. We sit and chat I realize I'm lost in wonder You hypnotize Friends can be Not judging or cruel We rant but sometimes then - Laugh like fools We disagree And moan a bit But that's the fun of chat - And chit I'm glad we hug To say goodbye So happy to be myself And never...

Premium Member Canadian Autumn
Canadian Autumn Forests of old and new growth in constant turmoil Are held upright by root systems filtering the soil. Trees and saplings stretch upward in the wilderness To absorb the sun’s rays for photosynthesis. Stands of coniferous and deciduous trees (Bearing green needles, and red, yellow, and orange leaves) Bent by capricious winds, resiliently snap back straight, And march down slopes to...

Canadian Snow
My path is icy But love has melted away And my feet surely Tread on the firm route That is lined with Deep friendship Deeper even than The cold Winter That Jack Frost has Clamped around my house I felt trapped But kindness Gentleness Inexplicable love Has made a path to freedom This path I am brave enough To adventure along CV...

Premium Member Wild Geese At Dawn
Canadian Geese flying south and trucks on the highway jostle for space in my ears. The trucks remind me of where I am in time and place, while the geese remind me of a lifetime of here and nows present, with the wonder of simply being. The geese moving with the seasons, following shifting pathways of water and crops, honk as they go; “Here we are, here we go! All...

Premium Member We Are Canadian: As One We Stand
We came from the beginning, shrouded mists of time and space, And in this vast and northern clime each found our sacred place. We were our country’s pioneers, the people of the land, We lit the flame and then became the first Canadians! We came on ships across the sea; with help from those before, Pushed frontiers three hundred years,...
