Follow Me Home by Laura June Rose

September 29, 2023
Poem title: Follow Me Home Poet name: Laura June Rose Poem: If you follow me through The Tachamahaca and the Maples of Manitoba, Brittle CN trains rattle, Canoes pass under steel trusses built in 1902. There waits a grassy pier, Before the bend of the river, where I shed by the shore. End of poem.
