Here Is My Ruin / Here Is My Treasure

My favourite contemporary writer (i.e. a writer roughly contemporary with myself) is Sam Snoek-Brown. Sam’s unique way of promoting his new chapbook of short stories, Where There Is Ruin, is to get us to promote it for him! No problem. I love his fiction. I thought I would do something a little zen for him, not knowing as I wrote it that there is a story about eggs in the chapbook…

Thanks so much, Marie! Love this poem, too! =D
I’m glad. It was literally written ‘on the run’.
[…] in our backyard; a friend wrote a piece about her childhood; Scottish author Marie Marshall posted a lovely poem on her blog. I’ve loved them all, but the most recent one I’ve seen knocked the wind out of me. […]
Thanks for the mention and the link.
Love it. Going to send to my daughter, who’s a birder.
I hope she likes it too.
