A nation born in fabled flux
and principles the finest
hearty stoic stormy morns
and evening walks in kindness
although not always oh so green
nor cherry blossom strewn
the peeps at odds disputes bucolic
fashions thrift marooned
but deep beneath polemic griefs
lies communal passion
six months to spree 6 more to plead
with guiltless weathered rations
the mountainous the Eastern trusts
the prairies's drifting sway
North of 60 stark and pithy
Québec's starry gaze
perhaps one day paths will be paved
that breed coastal consensus
hypnotic seeds sprout hearty deeds
beyond regional quenches
'till then within our disciplines
I'll wager these surmises
keep them heads up to shoot the puck
past anyone who rises
with a bit of tourtière
a grilled cheese with tomato
and some ketchup chips.
*Hope Canadian flights are cheaper in 2067. Could you imagine you could fly to Vancouver from Montréal and back for $300? That would be incredible.
