Millie's Christmas Wish

Millie's Christmas Wish
Winter Vacation was coming
The kids were all set
They were thinking of Christmas
And the gifts they would get

But, Millie sat waiting
Thinking of nothing but snow
Watching the class clock
That was moving so slow


They did arts...

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...

My Dear, in Headlights

No one dead is reaching out to you 
That's my voice that you hear when you're remembering all the opportunities you let go 
This is the lonely road 
and not only are you driving it...

The House That Jack Built 1

The House That Jack Built (Part 1)

Fatigued from years of gleaning storms of snow, sleet, and rain,
 I was yet an innocent and therefore unashamed.
 Her smothered walls creaked and her shingled roof leaked,
 The...

Nostalgia

Remember stuck on 
band-aid brand,
Because band-aid 
is stuck on you?
  Remember when
 the furniture was
Made from wicker 
and bamboo?

  Remember three
 on a bike with
the banana-seat.
  Remember the 
Magazine called,
Tiger Beat?

Under Currents

The ocean churns, deep in the bowels of its great stomach

A scurvy, a barnacle, a flag flung high amast 

From deep, deep down inside, below pressure boiling 
Bones exploding, windpipes constricting
Where no human soul should...

A Winter Day

*
On
This
A blessed
Winter Day
Dressed for the
Holidays. A pure blanched
Vision awaits me so I reflect out loud. 

Satin white angel hair snow, sleeps light on our street,
enriches the raw pines in a virginal base coat of flurries.
Families...

Ice Storm

It started with the freezing rain,
the curse of winter time,
turning all into slick black glass
on every road you find.

Then came on all the pelting sleet,
pins and needles outside,
you can hear it as it hits home,
adding...

Arctic Fire Bugs

The Arctic Fire Bugs

Ice nights are the playpen
For the kids born to this land
 Skating rinks and bowling shoes 
Never touched a hand
Or foot that kicked at blocks of ice
As thick as you are tall
They...

Eulogy

EULOGY
--MERAKI

I lie here, content
No, not endorsing a life of zest
Or days of melancholy
I lie here at ease,
For now there's respite
And I no more need to maneuver
The graceless rinks of maturity

I've had my share of happiness
And...

Still Listening

Preface:  Written for my wife our 1st Christmas without Ryan.

Still Listening

Ryan heard me whisper,
Merry Christmas to his mother.
He hears Rob and Ronnie laughing,
at funny stories of their brother.
He hears the prayers, 
he hears the...

Winter Turns To Spring

Snowfall so heavy in 'eighty-two
 reproduced a Christmas card view.
A biting wind swirled in one foot drifts
 over hanging in bridges..makeshift.

The fields flooded into skating rinks
 into which each footstep sinks,
cracking under body weight so...

Lockout

To the most ardent fans, this year has been hell.
There are plenty of idle hockey rinks throughout the NHL.
With season ticket holders, this has not been nice.
They want to see their favorite players roughhousing on...

Winter Sunday

The world is snowy white on a Sunday,
You can see the church steeples,
Parents and children are off to church on Sunday,
You can see prints in the snow,
Reindeer wander freely and are being fed,
Skiers ski the...

Winter

When snow starts falling in Canada 
We know winter games shall begin.
Do we just sit around fireplaces?
No, that would be a sin.
Snowball fights daily in our schoolyards,
Till the bell calls them in.

The Year of 1978

Disco music, flashing
Lights
Dancing to the disco
Beat…
Shiney clothes,glitter
Was a perfect dress
While grooving to the
Disco beat...
Take me back…
To 1978 when the
Disco groove was
In…
Skating rinks were
The thing,
When we skated to
The disco Boogie
Laughter....
Echoes of laughter
Roar…
Bouncing from wall
To wall..
Dancing,skating to

Skating Upon Saturn's Rings


In
cosmic
wilderness
icy rings swirl
with frozen rock dust
in thin ribbons on flight
in solar system unique,
around the sleeping Saturn far,
as it’s leftover wandering waste,
making the breathtaking celestial rinks
where I as cosmonaut shall one day glide,
skate upon the congealed...
