Bridge

Bridging another equinox

Rising stark on the other side

“Beauty is composed of many things and never stands alone. It is part of horizons, blue in the distance, great primeval silences, knowledge of all things of the earth… It is so fragile it can be destroyed by a sound or thought. It may be infinitesimally small or encompass the universe itself. It comes in a swift conception wherever nature has not been disturbed.”
~ Sigurd Olson

Fungus barnacles sprout new life for the fallen limb
As with all life there comes an end
Nature reminds us of the circle

“Spiders and flies–we’re mostly one t’other– / We come, we go; and when we’re done, we’re done.”

“Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.”
