“Pink” has been published in Adventitious Sounds: a chapbook for medical practitioners, learners and poets (League of Canadian Poets). Edited by Zamina Mithani.
The poem draws on my experience working as a young northern nurse.

“The man
makes his escape
through the back
door and out there
is nothing but…”
One of my poems has also placed in a contest, and I’ve just had a short story accepted for publication. More news soon.
“Pink” was previously published in Field Guide to the Lost Flower of Crete (McGill-Queen’s University Press).
Congratulations! I didn’t know you were a nurse for a time.
Yes, my past life 🙂
This is great news! And I love that photo of you❤️
Thank you Phyllis.
