Rocky Woods, Medfield, Massachusetts
So near is man to the creative pageant, so
much a part is he of the endless and incredible experiment,
that any glimpse he may have will be but the revelation of a moment,
a solitary note heard in a symphony
thundering through debatable existence of time.
HENRY BESTON, The Outermost House
Rocky Woods, Medfield, Massachusetts
Lovely walk among rocks...
Reminds me of the Arctic past of this land.
When the glaciers came and went, leaving the tough ones behind.
And not much else...
Hard to see how it all looked back then, but today,
the rocks are still HERE in all their strength and splendor,
sculpting such a noble, life-giving wonder...
Great Brook Farm State Park, Massachusetts
The time when snow imbues the woods
and the flurry of crystals billows around my boots,
but not this time,
still...
It is winter and I am HERE,
amidst the brown shades, glowing beech leaves, brightly colored mosses,
and the low Sun, always close, like a friend,
with the shadows that come along to enrich...
Fresh Pond, Cambridge, Massachusetts
Frozen islets on the grassy planes remind of the winter.
Once the curving, twisting and gliding motions become shapes,
seal the air in mini globes, and
the leaves make me see
how alike are the contours of life and water and why I love them so much...
Great Brook Farm State Park, Massachusetts
Amidst the frozen drops of water, holding onto the blades of grasses,
twinkling as if trying to send a message...
And what would that message be ?
In this cold of winter, the Sun is still around, warming your hearts...
Great Brook Farm State Park, Massachusetts
When crystals align along the blades of grasses and misty luster suffuses the feelings...
