"A Day in the Life" - Winners List!
Here's the challenge if you'd like to read some great poetry in the comments section! I never thought it would be so difficult to choose winners for a competition. I'm not going to lie, I sat here for quite a while mulling over everyone's poetry. You all write so well. So, thank you for making this almost impossible to do. But! I think I have finally chosen my top three. Just to give you all some perspective, I've literally been working down to the last few minutes of time before I had chosen to announce the winners so here we are!

Writers: The Quiet Architects of Human Thought
Writers are not always who you think they are. They’re not always sitting in mountain cabins or Paris cafés, sipping espresso and channeling brilliance through a vintage typewriter. Often, they’re in bedrooms with messy desks, typing between day jobs, parenting, or insomnia. They delete more than they keep. They rewrite. Obsess. Doubt.

Project Hail Mary
When Ryland Grace wakes up, he doesn’t remember who he is, where he is, or what he’s doing. All he knows is that he’s strapped to a bed in a sterile room, attended by a robotic medical arm. Nearby are two corpses — crewmates who didn’t survive. Slowly, his memories trickle back like distant echoes.

What Is Innovation? Shaping the Future Through the Power of Ideas: The Anatomy of Transformation
Whether we realize it or not, each of our days is woven with a series of innovations. From the smart alarms that wake us up to the apps we use, from energy efficient appliances to digital services that simplify our lives at every turn, we trace the unmistakable imprint of one powerful concept: innovation. Far from being a sterile term echoing in corporate R&D labs, innovation is the tangible expression of humanity’s drive to learn, improve, and reach for something better. The journey from a spark of an idea to a reality that creates value is, in essence, the story of innovation. But what exactly sets innovation apart from a mere improvement or a basic invention?

Romantic Story. Content Warning. AI-Generated.

Shakespeare's Novel A Midnight’s Revel
In the verdant realm of Ardenwood, where moonlight wove silver threads through ancient oaks, there dwelt a noble duke, Lord Alaric, exiled from his court by a treacherous brother, Duke Ferdinand. Alaric, with his loyal retinue, found solace in the forest’s embrace, living simply among shepherds and wanderers. Among his followers was young Rosalind, his daughter, a maiden of wit and grace, and her cousin Celia, who had fled the court to share her exile. The forest, alive with whispers of magic, was said to be touched by the fae, who delighted in meddling with mortal hearts.

Steady in the Storm
It’s often been said, “If you dislike change, you’re going to dislike irrelevancy even more.” One certainty as we navigate our personal and professional lives is this: there will be highs and there will be lows. How we handle each will ultimately dictate our happiness and success.

Contested. Top Story - June 2025.
And here I go again... June is here, and with it my yearly entry into the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC)'s Poetry Contest. They also have ones for Non-Fiction and Short Stories, but I think most wistfully over the one devoted to poetry. First, the deadlines are always the same, this one coming just as summer is about to begin (one of the coldest days in Montréal, but still). Second, I feel like I do my best work at the end of the semester with the pressure of term work and grading taken away and placed on someone else's back.

The Clockmaker’s Promise
In the heart of an old European village wrapped in fog and cobblestone, there lived a clockmaker named Elias Grunewald. His tiny shop sat nestled between a bakery and a bookstore, where the smell of ink and fresh bread danced through his open windows. Time itself seemed to pause at the threshold of his store, not out of reluctance, but respect.
