Great Meadows National Wildlife Refuge, Carlisle, Massachusetts
Concord is in high water.
During such times, the trail along the river is impassable.
Except today... all frozen...
Reminds me on J.H.Mitchell's observations
on how differently humans and nature perceive a floodplain.
For what humans see as flood to be stopped,
the plants see as high water. Perfectly adapted, this is just one of their natural states.
How superb in their calm...
