About the Poem
When I visited Canada for the fist time it was "love at fist sight." Every time I returned, it felt like a homecoming. A part of me is always there and I'm in a constant state of being torn between two lovers. Ah, sweet memories of days gone by and dreams of days yet to come.

Hi . I have travelled and lived in four countries. Canada is now my home and has been for many years. Your poem captures its beauty and greatness. Canada is a great country, filled with gentle people, once visited, never forgotten.

Canada, oh Canada what hast thou done with me whenever I do close my eyes my heart is there with thee Your mountains and great forests of an infinity Sequoias stand majestically ancient serenity What everlasting pleasure lies in your scenery the crumbling walls of what once was beneath a Maple tree Golden fields of waving grain whisper a lullaby the sunset slowly fades away beyond your endless sky Canada, oh Canada what hast thou done with me I feel thou whispers in my soul I wish to be with thee I spot a single red deer scent danger in the breeze the slightest noise will make her flee among your mighty trees I see your children playing out on a frozen pond at snowball fights and slapping pucks a magic way beyond Mem'ries of the days gone by engraved into my soul return to you I will some day it's always been my goal Canada, oh Canada what hast thou done with me thou temptress of my craving heart I long to be with thee |

Your poem was beautiful. I was born and raised in Canada, and am proud to be Canadian. When I walk in my neighbourhood, I am reminded of the simplistic beauty that is my country. Your poem enhanced Canada's natural beauty even further. Thank you for honouring my country.
