The English Professor. We had company this past week and one of the folks
visiting us is a Professor at York University. I can remember my Professors
from my years at college and have my own image of an "English Professor"
Priscila Uppal captured and held our attention for the whole evening. She is a
published poet! Priscila was the "Poet in Residence" for the Canadian Olympic
Team in Vancouver. She penned a couple of poems each day including one for the
gold medal hockey team that appeared on the sports pages (that must be a
first). During our evening she did a reading for us from her new book of
poems, Traumatology. What a treat - Priscila shared the stories behind each poem which was a great experience. Seems to me that we are all too quick to
form judgements based on perceptions rather than assessing the reality. (www.priscilauppal.ca)
"Good poetry seems too simple and natural a thing that when we meet it we
wonder that all men are not always poets. Poetry is nothing but healthy
speech."
- Henry David Thoreau
