Medallions of belief

Medallions of Belief is a chapbook configured on the occasion of a workshop and reading for Toronto New School of Writing titled "How to Write a Poem for the Queen." The workshop was held on Saturday, March 10, 2012. The poems are selected from past publications as well as unpublished and newer poems, and they celebrate thinking around the notion of an "occasional" poem. The poem "The Snowflake Age" was written at the request of the Speakers of the House of Commons and the Senate for Queen Elizabeth's Diamond Jubilee.
