Hearth of the inmost colour, deepest blue
A shade that lets you sink into a wellness.
As opposite to yellow, it makes you
Stay cool and sweet, receiving a caress.
Because it is in everything that’s high
Above us, in the sky; and in the deep
Of lakes and sea, a sapphire, or an eye
That winks and smiles at you, while half asleep.
And jeans, of course, and a beloved frock:
- It was the summer you just turned eighteen -
You felt a princess with it on, you rocked.
You wore your earrings with aquamarine.
When you feel blue, don’t worry: it’s how you are, don’t you?
And if you change your colour, please, never change your blue.

Your face has turned into your mother’s face
And when I’m watching you I now mistake
Her battered features. You have lost your grace
In time and places. Were you wide-awake?
Or is it me (my eyes, you know, may err)?
And when I’m watching you I now mistake
Your pace for hers. You were unaware
Of what was yet to come. You married trice…
Or is it me (my eyes, you know, may err)?
And she was looking you. You paid the price
Of what is love, still childless, in a dream
Of what was yet to come. You married trice,
The world around you marking its inseam
Over your skin. Here goes the carving blade
Of what is love, still childless, in a dream.
And in a carnival, a masquerade,
Your face has turned into your mother’s face.
Over your skin here goes the carving blade:
Her battered features. You have lost your grace.

The County of Brant Public Library would like to formally thank everyone who made the wonderfully successful Young Authors Project possible!
Funded by the Ontario Trillium Foundation, the Young Authors Project was a special project sponsored by Kids Can Fly, The Brantford Expositor, and the County of Brant Public Library.
Writer-in-residence-for-youth Lauren Kirshner lead the project, which gave 22 lucky local youth the chance to hone their writing craft under the mentorship of a published author.
The final product, 22 Pairs of Shoes, was launched at a special reception at the Brant Sports Complex where the participants received congratulations and a copy of the final published magazine.

November 21, 2005 is a day I shall long remember. A friend of mine took this photo and then took off running for the car. He was able to escape this pack of angry golden retriever puppies. I wasn't so lucky. Like velociraptors, this pack had me running in fear and always looking back to see if the blood thirsty hounds were catching up to me. I ran right into the mouth of an awaiting retriever. The pack soon caught up and they all began tearing at my flesh and my clothes with their razor-sharp puppy teeth. Their combined intellect far surpassed mine, yet I had a secret weapon. I had a tennis ball that I just found minutes earlier. I raised the ball in my right hand and pretended to hurl the ball with all my might. Although the ball was still in my hand, the puppies all began running for the ball. Before they realized that I never threw the ball, I was back to the safety of my car with my friend. We were safe even as we watched the puppies at the back passenger side of the car. I wondered what they were doing looking at the back door when my friend and I were up front. Those puppies were not as intelligent as I once thought. I then looked at the backseat and saw that one of the golden puppies had no doubt followed my friend into the car and was now sitting and staring at me with his tongue bobbing in and out of his mouth. That little puppy then walked to the door and used his paw to open the back door. The door swung open and the pack quickly jumped into the car. The puppies lunged into the front seat and began to lick my arms and face. I began to panic. The largest and apparent leader of the pack jumped onto my chest and his mouth went for my throat. Every good time and happy memory that I ever had during my life passed through my mind. When that ended, about ten seconds later, I passed out and...

By Sylvia Plath -
I am silver and exact. I have no preconceptions.
What ever you see I swallow immediately
Just as it is, unmisted by love or dislike.
I am not cruel, only truthful—-
The eye of a little god, four-cornered.
Most of the time I meditate on the opposite wall.
It is pink, with speckles. I have looked at it so long
I think it is a part of my heart. But it flickers.
Faces and darkness separate us over and over.
Now I am a lake. A woman bends over me,
Searching my reaches for what she really is.
Then she turns to those liars, the candles or the moon.
I see her back, and reflect it faithfully.
She rewards me with tears and an agitation of hands.
I am important to her. She comes and goes.
Each morning it is her face that replaces the darkness.
In me she has drowned a young girl, and in me an old woman
Rises toward her day after day, like a terrible fish.
