Let's not forget the One who dreamed us into existence
While we wax knowingly on Creation
On the poignancy of a new jade leaf
On all the small agonies with which we've been blessed
Let's not forget that first agony
That first lonely scream that started a pebble down a hill that becomes today
Let's not forget the Magic of this universe
Where we can be small dreamers, pushing pebbles
Let's forget to destroy each other
Let's forget yesterday's doctrine
Let's be farmers and not moneylenders
Let's convince God we're worthy of Heaven
This collection of poetry addresses the nature of time, reflections on the natural world, the difficulty of loss,
contemporary social issues and gratitude for life.
Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
