Moss Glen Falls - Stowe,VT.

No real trails, just a destination on the big map
We walk in, following the creek, following others...

Then climbing higher, the water below...

                Above us, a mossy rooted lookout, is this it?

             We scramble up and turn around on the narrow ledge -

WOW,
Straight across, over a hundred feet high,
Cascading gracefully like a woman's ponytail -
the FALLS.

    And the ROAR of the water everywhere.

                                Chef John at work;

 

ta da ...

                                  

Cumulonimbus

      Building in the atmosphere,

     Billowing upwards

     A world of distant splendor -

  

    Leading us to wonder.                                            East Branch Delaware River, Hancock, NY     

Gathering,

Lighting, walking,                     

Lines drawn in time 

Each one experiments                               

     Communal and separate -
                                         

    Gathering rhythms

    Circling worlds.

Moon rising -

over low hills and a wide mowed field
lawn chairs set up at the far end for viewing
Fireworks -

    

Wild streams like calligraphy                                        
rise from the earth
electric, exciting
the moon stays steady
mingling with shooting stars
in ever changing compositions -

 

                                                      all Hail to the red white and blue

Water

Flowing down from high hills

Past a glistening forest

To a pond below

Wrapped around by roots

The home of swans

 

A place to reflect.
