On the Rainy Day

Witch Hole Pond Loop, Acadia National Park

... circling boggy, wooded areas with ponds ... and the beaver's home... all in the view: the dam, the house, the pond... haze in the air and dead trees mystify the place... raindrops tapping the stillness... the master is asleep...

Eagle's Crag

Eagle's Crag, Cadillac Mountain, Acadia National Park

... the place for eagles to take breaks from their fly-overs... suggestive of heights and cliffs... I hope for a safe point... SAFE by my standards...

Hiking Pemetic Mountain

North Ridge and South Ridge, Pemetic Mountain, Acadia National Park

ACADIA... poetic splendor... touches my soul so deeply... each time I come HERE...

The Cooperative

Lindentree Farm, Lincoln, Massachusetts

... on my left are farm fields... like an army... orderly, in rows... growing under careful human supervision... on my right is a narrow strip of land... where grasses have escaped and formed the cooperative with other escapees... where butterflies come for a visit... and I enjoy watching...

Phantom Revealed

Walden Pond, Massachusetts

... THERE... a six-legged flier humans call Phantom Crane... for her long legs... and the way she drifts through the air... touches the Pond... and disappears... like a Phantom... and the surface stays silent...

Summer Collage

Lincoln Conservation Land, Massachusetts

... walking alongside meadow... a leftover between the swamp and the gardens... and the trail which brings the passerby so close but not closer... I stop and look at the collage of colors and forms... without a scheme... where each finds a space for life... and enchants observers...
