Since I had just arrived <br />from foreign shores <br />where men are shy <br />and women tease, <br />I halted briefly at the dune <br />and looked straight into <br />the Southern sun. <br />You later said you smiled <br />right when I draped with care <br />the Mapleleaf upon <br />what I would call in Latin only <br />mons pubis, (cute, those curls) . <br />I've loved Canadian women <br />ever since. Au Canada.<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-canadian/
