5.0 out of 5 stars
An impressive anthology of the poetry,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Snowbird Poems (Currents in Canadian Literature) (Paperback)
The Snowbird Poems is an impressive anthology of the poetry of Canadian literary icon Robert Kroetsch. There is the matter of the crabapple tree./There it stands, wintering, you might say,/in the small front yard/between the veranda and the sidewalk.//Snow, you may have noticed, has seated itself/in the two wicker chairs on the veranda./As for the sidewalk,/we'll get to that in a moment.//The crabapple tree appears to be posing/for a woodcut, possible by Hiroshige,/his Japanese trees precise, angular, yet graceful/in their delicate tracings of snow.//But this is a January morning/on 18th Avenue SW, Calgary./I have just now shoveled the sidewalk/for the fifth time in the past three days.
