Copsing

Changming Yuan, China-Canada

 

Tall against the frozen sky
You stand as still as straight, your skeletons 

Are the exquisite calligraphy
                           Of an entire season

Your name is curly writ

 

Not in water

But with wind

Before leaving his native country, Yuan Changming published monographs on translation. Currently, Yuan edits Poetry Pacific with Allen Qing Yuan in Vancouver. Credits include ten Pushcart nominations and publications in Best of the Best Canadian Poetry (2008-17) and BestNewPoemsOnline, amongst others.
