The Field of Geese
Written by Leslie Stark
Illustrated by Miriam Issa
It was still dark outside
when my dad woke me and my sister.
Still in our jammies, we went for a drive
in the country.
As dawn coloured the sky
we drove down the highway
between Oakville and Elm Creek,
and when we arrived,
crabby and sleepy-eyed,
we were silenced, amazed
by this enormous field of geese
that moved like a wave into flight
as we ran toward the field
trying to capture them.
