Montreal Poems - Poems about Montreal

Montreal is calling

Montreal is my favourite city ~ a mix of old and new.
I love its architecture which graces it with style and unique character.

It's got more than its share of cathedrals, pubs and restaurants.
It boasts a vibrant mingling of local and exotic culture.
Well known to be the hub of exquisite cuisine and fine dining.

Montreal gathers artists

Montreal - Apr 29

O’ Mother!, take me back at last, receive
—(unclasped arms as vast as mine)—my embrace;
this longing, laughing love, the proof and grace
of my abiding for your shores.—I grieve 

the lasting loss that shear struck—do believe
my grave and groveling art of disgrace,—
when ten years had but barely found their place
in my life. As with you then, now

Montreal Born

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

GNRT DAY 37 MONTREAL AND THE LANGUAGE OF THE FRENCH

How can you not love the language, the accent…
they way they form their words in France?
How French words flow so easily…linger in the air…and dance

Luckily we didn’t have to go to France…
to hear their language and be enthralled 
because French is the language many speak right here in Montreal.

We tried to study ahead of time…knowing

Montreal Closes Down In Rain

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 what is happening

plain colored umbrellas at attention
drizzling rain out there
mostly

Montreal In the Fall

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 to school supplies, mom's past will surprise,
Laptop, iPad end, paper,

Montreal Geisha

A deep beneath the long and creeping
branch shadows of the hanging tree

Under it's protective glare in it's barren
tainted garden fair shackled down
in stocks

It's 1 and only single rose prances like a
dancing horse following whichever way
the waning waxing moon doth flow to
the salty sea breeze

As in the day the sun makes hey and
steals away the subtle

An Odd Man In Montreal

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

Montreal Under Clouds

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
