A Stroll with the Sun

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... 

Great Brook Farm: ... the low Sun, always close, like a friend...

Great Brook Farm: ... amidst glowing beech leaves...

Great Brook Farm: ... through the sunshine...

Great Brook Farm: ... of the only leaves still on branches...

Great Brook Farm: ... in the middle of brown shades...

Great Brook Farm: ... and stretched out shadows...

Great Brook Farm: ... brightly colored earth...

Great Brook Farm: ... and rocks...

Great Brook Farm: ... with some ferns still awake...

Great Brook Farm: ... and light marks of snow...

Great Brook Farm: ... mingling around...

Great Brook Farm: ... among the browns, greens, and young...

Great Brook Farm: ... so much to look at...

Great Brook Farm: ... as the Sun follows each step...

Great Brook Farm: ... and the pathway continues...
