Ode to Mary

  1. Honey sweet, cotton soft,
  2. Snowy fair, mountain top,
  3. Ocean blue, angel song,
  4. Evening still, sunset long.
  5. Springtime red, summer green,
  6. Autumn cool, winter clean,
  7. Sunshine warm, coastal breeze,
  8. Maple shade, swaying trees.
  9. Blackened brown, hazel eyes,
  10. Snowy skin, quite the prize,
  11. Warming heart, thinking of,
  12. Never hurt, ever love.

By Kim Siever

I live in Lethbridge with my spouse and 5 of our 6 children. I’m a writer, focusing on social issues and the occasional poem. My politics are radically left. I recently finished writing a book debunking several capitalism myths. My newest book writing project is on the labour history of Lethbridge.

I’m also dichotomally Mormon. And I’m a functional vegetarian: I have a blog post about that somewhere around here. My pronouns are he/him.
