You are lured in by
the tree-framed view
to stand on the rocks
and breathe
to kneel by water's edge
and admire.
It is good to disappear
into such grandeur

Life and writing, serious and humorous, old and young, past and present: it's all part of the fabric.
“Maybe we’re here only to say: house, bridge, well, gate, jug, olive-tree, window--at most, pillar, tower--but to say them, remember, oh! to say them in a way that the things themselves never dreamed of so intensely.” --Rilke
Memories of Ocean Point near Boothbay, Spruce Point near Rockland, Acadia and scenes along the way. Lush and golden, I see the rocks and beach stones as treasure. The ocean as a mirror even when it rages and the outcroppings and points and bays simply nature at its best. We only have a week a year there, but it makes the other 51 go a little faster!
