Pakenham Bush Tanka

by Maureen Glaude

blue lines stretch
not across the hockey ice
but from maple to maple in the sugar bush
today's mode of collection
retiring the old sap buckets

LOL! Quite the snappy little visual piece. And I imagine it's been a short season with the temperature up to 20 Celcius today already, without the usual slower transition from cold to warm to make the sap flow optimumly. A favorite with my sausages and Eggos, I'm almost afraid to see what the price of the stuff will be at the supermarket.
