                                                              Vancouver, B.C.
                 Serpentine
                 the curved expanse of lake,

                                                            the edging, lacy trees
                                                            leafless yet before
                                                            the ides of March

                                                             the early song of speckled birds
                                                              perched upon the ancient
                                                              rock-hewn lanterns

                                                                the wild flow of the cataract
                                                                 rippling into stillness
                                                                 at the bamboo bridge

                 the deep green water
                 mirroring serenity.
