MANITOULIN ISLAND, ONTARIO poem
by Richard L. Provencher Manitoulin Island, Ontario Family memories capture the time we crossed Lake Huron waters on the Chee Chee Maun ferryboat alert to the holidays of our desires- Sue fending off seagulls anxious for a crust, Troy laughing with youthful squeals Walt, subdued and serious at fourteen year's of age Esther and husband sharing their excitement. Our tent soaking in heavy rains, a cottage beside Little Current travels along gravel roads on dusty trails of history and fishing, tarred boat carrying us into the bay, small mouth bass pickings never to be forgotten. Ah memories, the past a tray of remembrance. Richard L. Provencher 2004-2009 Richard enjoys writing poems; many of which have been published in Print and Online. He and his wife, Esther are also co-authors of stories and a print novel. They are "born again" Christians and very busy in their church, Abundant Life Victory International, in Bible Hill, Nova Scotia. Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
