The Canberra Times newspaper, in its weekend Panorama magazine, published Andrew’s poem “Along the Way” on 28 June 2014. The poem is reproduced below:

 

Along the Way

 

This flock of Canada geese

floating on the Mississippi,

enjoying the sun’s crease

 

in the water’s bob before

continuing their migration

to some dim distant shore …

 

And may not I, too, take

such enjoyments, such respites

on the journey I must make?
