New England Butter and Sugar corn, a wonder right out of the husk.

A food so marvelous, why process it or feed it to cows??? [see The Omnivore's Dilemma] 

You can't always get what you want

The humble celery. One of the things I crave not living in the states. Go figure.

Where the impressionists got their ideas from

Tillandsia

Tillandsia are epiphytes or air plants--they grow without soil. Tillandsia was named by Carolus Linnaeus after the Swedish physician and botanist Dr. Elias Tillandz (originally Tillander) (1640-1693).

A three strand cord is not easily broken

the start of a thousand lilies

When you have only two pennies left in the world, buy a loaf of bread with one, and a lily with the other. --Chinese Proverb

Christina's World

[after the painting "Christina's World" by Andrew Wyeth]

A torn body come to rest,

beached on a uphill slope

and with a sigh

the heart's hope

twists towards the high horizon.

White Cliffs of Dover

Cold cliffs

in a grassy sea,

worn down in a faster time

to their watery grave.

Boxwood Light

Green scoops

catch the far-off gold,

filled to silvered cups.

Flint without heat,

the flame turned to a softer burn,

icy at a distance,

mellow to the touch

lending their glory

to the day.
