- - - From “The Layers” by Stanley Kunitz

“I have walked through many lives,
some of them my own...”

“Live in the layers, not on the litter.”


Whitesburg Nature Preserve

Please... take only pictures. Leave only footprints.

- - - From Sound of the Ax by William Stafford

“A wilderness is something in the mind. I live there. I walk around in its great big footprint. I want to hold those prints in the light. Years later of course the trail is gone. “

“Trees do not demand any response, whatever their stance.”

“A poem already knows where you are, and it nails you there.”
