Brown Man Translated

 


Rienzi soared from

Tea fields and ravens

Heat, pythons, panthers

Monsoonal deluge

To icy driveways

Where no amount of winter salt

Or chipping

Would do the trick.

Remove the treacherous hazard.

Back aching miserably.


But kids loved the sleigh hill

Maple syrup’s magical flow

Mennonite baking stalls at Market.

Santa Claus parades.

Easter cantata at

St. Agnes Church.

“Crown Him with many crowns.”
