In an old booklet of poems by the McGill Group of Poets, at the bottom of F.R. Scott's poem "trees in ice", Montreal poet Sonja Skarstedt writes, "I spoke to FRS at McGill in 1981 & he explained to me that he wrote this poem in memory of a time during his boyhood in Quebec City--he recalled the winters when he glanced out of his window & saw the black, bare branches encased in clear ice." So, now, anyone doing research on Scott's poems has this to include.
This untitled booklet has poems by the McGill Group of Poets--Frank Scott, AJM Smith, AM Klein, and Leo Kennedy. Maybe the booklet was used in a class on Canadian poetry, it doesn't have a publisher, a title, an ISBN, a date, and it is unpaged, but it is a good short introduction to the poems of these important Canadian poets.
