Second Place: “the stone artist” by Theresa Rogers on the Stanley Park seawall in the Vancouver Poet Laureate City Poems Contest, Emerging Poets category, June 2022

Reading of "the stone artist"Theresa Rogers
00:00 / 00:54

Comments on the poem from the judge, David Ly: 

 It takes a refined point-of-view to showcase a single location in a poem that simultaneously pushes the narrative forward, and Theresa Rogers does this beautifully with “the stone artist”. Like how the artist in the poem carefully stacks his stones along Vancouver’s seawall, Theresa Rogers has meticulously built this poem up with few, but beautifully arranged words. “the stone artist” displays a wonderful balance between nuanced description and honed poetic voice. -DL
