Editor’s Notes

Greetings Dear Readers,

This month's issue features moments from the present, the past, from large to small. I'm writing these notes on my phone as I sit in my hospital bed on the seventh floor of the Ottawa General, grateful for the opportunity of poetry to turn my focus from myself to a larger picture, carefully painted and presented by these skilled poets. I hope you enjoy the issue.

Thanks to our selection committee this month:

Jesse Aubin
Dan Boland
Chris Johnson
Sarah Kabamba
Margo Lapierre
Stephanie Mason
Kemisha Newman
Jade Riordan
Sonia Saikaley
Jagjeet Sharma
Marjorie Silverman
Carol A. Stephen
JC Sulzenko
