by Arthur Weir
'Snowshoeing Song' Summary
In “Snowshoeing Song,” the speaker, an avid snowshoer, embarks on a winter expedition through a picturesque landscape. As they traverse snow-laden trails, their snowshoes create a rhythmic cadence that echoes through the silent forest. The speaker observes the intricate patterns formed by snow crystals, the playful antics of woodland creatures, and the towering presence of snow-covered trees. Through their journey, they reflect on the historical significance of snowshoeing in Canada, acknowledging its role as a means of transportation and survival for early settlers and Indigenous communities.Book Details
