Here Again

Choate Island, Crane Estate, Massachusetts
 
Along the meadow
  that brings golden moments of the autumn.
    Among the spruces, into the heights.

 And then
    this blue line where the Ocean meets infinity...

Immersed

Noanet Woodlands, Dover, Massachusetts
 
Ponds in woods.

Why I love them so much?

They make me ponder the depths of forms and colors,
 wondering
  in all that water and light bring together. 

 With such a beauty...

On a Dam

Noanet Woodlands, Dover, Massachusetts
 
Here they are.
The trail is non-passable.

Lots of water, lots of trees, the resolve, the know-how.

And the new world appears.
Looks messy.
But there must be an order beneath these branches.

To the beaver's liking...

With Rocks

Ravenswood Park, Gloucester, Massachusetts
 
Mingled with the rocks, sculpting the pathways.
 With a bounty of variants
  where each and every carves its own way.
 
 And it is so special to be one of them,
    if only for a moment... 

Humming

 Great Brook Farm State Park, Carlisle, Massachusetts
 
Hummingbirds.

In so many ways they are a never-ending delight.

The smallest birds,
with the highest metabolism of all animals,
enabling them to hover while feeding on the nectar of flowers.

And then I see them,
  and hear their humming among Cardinal Flowers,
 
    in the real world...
