Oh My(,) Canada!

My oh my, a land for all
Where maple blooms in the fall
From Green Gables to Edmonton Mall
From Great Lakes to Rockies tall
Oh my, Canada!
A land for all!

My oh my, a land for me
That took my family as refugee
From penniless to mortgage free
From boomers to generation three
Oh my Canada!
I stand on guard for thee!

Absurd

Absurdity is relative.
Eat with two sticks? Absurd!
Eat with both hands? Absurd!
Eat with no utensils? Absurd!
Absurdity was absurd!

Unconditional Trust

On the edge of the bed
Tentative
Hands stretched
"Jump!"
Tentative
"Jump!"
Eyes closed
Jumps
Into Daddy's arms.
