Today's poem on Penny's Poetry Blog:
Summer in the South, by Paul Laurence Dunbar

The oriole sings in the greening grove
As if he were half-way waiting,
The rosebuds peep from their hoods of green,
Timid and hesitating.

*********** Kirby Doyle (November 27, 1932 - April 5, 2003) was an

American poet and novelist, part of the San Francisco Renaissance of the
20th century.************

His work's copyrighted in Canada until 2054 under present law.

Oh Lordy... I see....!

No problem. He's out, as I don't think I'll be doing the blog when I'm
100; but feel free to suggest any poets. It's easy enough for me to look
up their death dates.

Again, for the record, the poet has to have been passed away how many
years for the Copyright in Canada to expire..?

20, 22 years..?

51 years in Canada. Which is "low" by today's standards -- in Britain
and Europe (and for newer works in the US) it's now 71 years, and in
Mexico it's 101 years.
