Amongst the vineyards
She sounds
continuous tambourine
loud celebration of sight
drowning hell and giving
heaven vacant space
We drive
and drive around
tourist inside his
homeland Ontario
viewing it first at 23
and now 5th visit
at 26.
the seasons submerge
forging unison
Here
the beauty female
is born as we stare
snap photos and
take chances on the
betting machines
Each day it pulls
the provinces closer
together
drawing strangers to
drive and stand and glare
at this bowl of white mist
with a playing marching band
hidden below it all
