Awakening (in Silence at Naramata)
Oct 26 - Nov 4, 2012

Awakening is a series of poems written while I was on an eight-day silent retreat at Naramata Centre.  Many of them, particularly those in Quail in a Pine Tree came to me fully formed in a sudden explosion of creativity.  As the retreat progressed and I entered deeper into the silence, the poems themselves came from deeper within, requiring more effort and even anguish to give them form.

Some are much better than others, but I have included them all.
