(the cellar wine casks at Mission Hill winery near Kelowna)
(the feel of chickadees eating sunflower seeds off my hand in Laurier Park in the fall)
(playing short improvised poems on my metallophone daily)
(hearing the clip-clop of a horse pulling a carriage ride on the back streets of Victoria)
(revisiting the earliest story that made a lifelong impression in grade 1)
