Hi Dawn, coming in late with this. I'm running late all the time lately. Farming and building is really taking over our life after all the rain we've had.
I loved this beautiful poem paying tribute to the anniversary of your beautiful country. I'm so fortunate to be able to say I've travelled Canada extensively. Flew into many parts throughout my twenty years of flying. Exploring whenever I could, which was a lot. Wonderful. All the best. Ulla:)))

Dawn,
Canada is actually on my bucket list of places I'd love to see. *smile* The problem is that it's so big and there's so many choices of where to go and what to do! hahaha! A wonderful tribute! Thanks!

Oh, it IS big. Heal that foot, (LOL>>) drive my car up here and I'll take you cross-country (but off the beaten track, so you you see some of the best sights. :))
Thank you, Robyn.

Dawn, this is a great poem promoting Canada and celebrating 150 years. I enjoyed this poem as it certainly highlights some great attractions that Canada offers, especially the bison, beaver and bear wildlife. A true concluding line of - Canadian kindness and love never ends. - You betcha :-) Thanks for sharing this lovely read. ~DD

That's just good English, Dawn. Isn't it wonderful to belong to a proud country that identifies with its unique gifts and its unique citizens. From a proud Australian, well done we love you proud Canadian, Giddy ;))

Hi Dee-Dee,
Ah my sister from another Mother country... but in saying that, and obviously meaning that... there is a strong and true connection between our two countries... no, not just the spelling factor... but I believe something about a lower keyed-laid back attitude.
I love reading this poem... a tribute and a real proudness burnt into the relaying of... me personally, Canada is one destination that I would love to achieve in my this life time... and if not this one, (for reasons known by you)... the next one!
Happy one hundred and fiftieth Birthday Canada!
With our thoughts we create,
like-minded breathing.
James vx's.

Well, Sir Knight, once again we are on the same wavelength - Australia is one place I would love to visit in this lifetime, but as YOU know (just as I know about you and yours), it's not likely! (...sigh...)
Thank you for honoring my poem, James - I do love my country very much, and yes, my heart went into writing this - I am very proud of Canada an Canadians (most - lol).
Many, many wonderful wishes for you, dear friend.
