Snow
Snow
by Joyce, Grade 11
In winter the seeds of snow sprout,
in spring they burn away.
——Come farther and watch, watch
as they breath gently in the sea of wind,
watch as they soothe the plaintive face of a
vast land that was the face of a child, scathed, bruised,
lips palpitating in broken rhymes,
and they whisper lullabies into your
ears, warm you up in blankets of pure white,
wave quiet dreams into your shadows.
Come closer, but do not speak nor seek; sleep,
and the land too sleeps in peace.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT
We wish to acknowledge this land on which Branksome operates. For thousands of years, it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous peoples from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work and go to school on this land.
Setting the new standard for girls' education everywhere takes collective action. From all of us.
