CANADA A tiny barren village, carved from the rocky cliffs , A busy ocean harbour with liners, freighters, skiffs; A peaceful sunny meadow crossed by roads of red, A gold expanse of prairies stretching far ahead; A town whose glistening church spire lifts a cross on high, A busy lakehead port whose cranes stand out against the sky , A noisy clanging city, the hub of industry, A town risen unbelievably at oil ' s discovery, And then a frozen wilderness whose perils men relate — Each scene is part of Canada, each makes its country great. LAVINA LICKLEY, Form V.
