November gusts sigh

and moan as falling voices

crumple in defeat

ancient bellows breathe in time,

fresh sparks ignite, light the sky.

My name is Janice.  I started blogging as Ontheland when I moved from Toronto to a rural area near Kingston, Ontario in Canada.  Over time I have found myself writing poetry, mostly in Japanese forms, such as haiku and haibun.  One of my deepest interests is the natural world: the joy of it and how we can look after it better.
