Central Ontario
Keppel-SarawakWas a township to the east
Of yellow grass
And wilted school houses
Do you remember the children
Who jump rope
For fun?
There is an inlet a far way from here
And a school ground of stones and the sepia colours of faded photographs
Mid life woman sitting on her porch
Tilted swings creak softly in the breeze
And her hair is splayed across her face like reminders of beauty
She is weathered
With all features of the word
Oh days oh days
From the womb to the grave
Will you bless the homesick people
Who are aimless and bereaved
