There’s still time! | Poems for Obama
https://poemsforobama.wordpress.com/2009/02/09/theres-still-time
A Canadian gift to the 44th President. There’s still time! If the first round of judging has begun without your work–we still really want it! I wish we could transmit the joy and wonder of reading these varied voices of Canada. Every kind of poetry is coming in, haiku to song lyrics, sonnets to free verse. The final judges will have an embarrassment of riches from which to choose just 49 pieces that, fitted together, will give President Obama the experience of meeting the complete Canadian. Mr Obama is v...

First round of selection. Is in Powell River this weekend, February 9 and 10. Thus far, what’s come to mind is something like. On Fe...

Dear Poet: A message from Kaimana | Poems for Obama
https://poemsforobama.wordpress.com/2009/01/20/007
A Canadian gift to the 44th President. Dear Poet: A message from Kaimana. The blog is up, the poems are rolling in from the famous, infamous, and emerging poets of this land, and we’re on the way to collecting 49 quintessentially Canadian poems to the 44th president of the US! Mr Obama will receive a taste of the collection on Inauguration Day, but, since it will take him a while to recuperate from attending ten inaugural balls anyway, collection will continue to the end of January. Take this one as an e...

The Window is Closing! | Poems for Obama
https://poemsforobama.wordpress.com/2009/02/25/the-window-is-closing
A Canadian gift to the 44th President. The Window is Closing! Happy to announce that over two hundred poems by 70 poets have come in thus far for possible inclusion in “Parallel: 49 Canadian Poets Speak to Obama.” We are starting to like the title, not least because parallel lines by definition do not meet. If one thing is clear from this stack of fine creativity before me, it is that Canadians are a unique people. On February 25, 2009 at 7:20 pm Leave a Comment. To TrackBack this entry is:.

Author, author!: February 2008

Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. View my complete profile. Writing on Week Twenty-three. The Death of A Partner. Sunday, February 24, 2008. The branches are bare outside my window. It has been many days since we slept here. I try not to watch. The little hand move through the day. The branches are bare. Outside my window I see stars begin to form. They mark another day. Gone since we slept here. I try not to measure. These mornings I don’t wake in his arms. The branches bore leaves. Because You Love Me.
