Let's make this birthday one to remember.

74 years old (Born on June 27, 1950)

Happy Birthday, Tim! May your day be filled with more joy than a moose wandering through the Moosewood Sandhills and greater excitement than any Tourist to Ecstasy could ever imagine. Your poetic journeys have taken us from riversides in To the River all the way back home again—always leaving readers both inspired and slightly bewildered (in a good way!).

Here's wishing you another year of literary adventures as profound yet delightfully puzzling as your finest verses. Keep exploring life's mysteries; after all, nobody makes existential contemplation quite so entertainingly Canadian like you do. Cheers to many more timeless poems ahead!
