Remembering Cecile



photo: Andrew Collis

For Cecile

With fair emphasis
winter-hat mindfulness,
she recounts adventure,
pleasure.

Braving humour,
Tai Chi high, low sun:
her mother's hammer
in Portland, Oregon.

A quest for simplicity,
a zest for gardens,
for compost, signs,
fabrics, electricity -

in anger, in love,
in all of us.
