Journey
This summer I’ll be on the Dust Blown Side of the Journey with a book launch on August 6 at Lexicon Books in the beautiful town of Lunenburg, Nova Scotia.
Music
For those of you reading the poem “Music” in Dust Blown Side of the Journey this is an image of the nature reserve. The poem is about the anticipatory wait as a composer finishes writing a score. The book comes with beautiful French flaps and “Music” is printed on the extension of the front cover.
Beachcombing
Beachcombing
the net you cast
is never a trap:
it is the hammock
where I rest my
thoughts: the welkin
and the forest-wild
that you weave
together for me:
your blue-
green threads:
the trim
on the shore
that I strive
toward
