TAPESTRIES

Louise Morey Bowman

Powder

Of diamond

Upon a silver birch;

Old stone wall

Buried deep.

Louise Morey Brown was Canada’s first Imagist po​et, embracing Imagism’s forms and tropes as she matured as a writer. She wrote the first modern English-language haiku sequences, and experimented with a strophic cinquain form. This collection features all of her syllable-form poetic experimentation.
