On the Path

 Cambridge, Massachusetts

   Around the Sun, TOGETHER...

Disguised

Adams Woods, Concord, Massachusetts

I love to saunter woods after the snowfall,
  when all known forms greet me coated, like the actors in a new play,
   and the ponds become spotless walkabouts

     without footnotes... 

45 YEARS of Steps

Walden Pond, Concord, Massachusetts

   TOGETHER, to this day...

Cold days keep the snow light and fluffy.

 Sculpted personas abound, and

  the unseen are present.
    Each one molds its own path,
      some hurry along, others crisscross, but never meet.

  It looks like all of them keep going on purpose,
    with a joy of being that transpires through. 

I wonder if the traces of our steps feel the same way ?
 
   What a JOURNEY ! 

In White

Mount Auburn Cemetery, Cambridge, Massachusetts

Again...

  This time it came at night, joined with the cold for sparkling morning.
    Attired trees appear to have shaped the world of magic.
     Snow crystals are on the show,

        no bounces allowed... 

Who Enjoys Winter ?

Habitat, Belmont, Massachusetts

Brings fresh breaths and silence,  
      with the notes of my own steps and Chick-A-Dee-Dee calls.

And then
  I turn my head to the side, and here they are,
    the eyes and the ears,
      with no questions, not a sign of fear, as if they know us well.

   Thank you for these looks...

and Then IT Comes

Broadmoor, Natick, Massachusetts

At another time, and another place.
  Young pines in white clothes, artfully curving their branches.
   Shaping the traits and spaces of beauty.

     So delicate.
 
       With the steps that stay behind...

Missing

Estabrook Woods, Concord, Massachusetts

 A touch of snow on the ground.
  Crunching crystals blending with the leaves.

   Winter music of the woods.
 
     A present that breaks the brownish silence into melodious walking...
