Weekending

We had a lovely weekend visiting with younger son Justin.

"Good fences make good neighbors." Mending Wall, Robert Frost

"I wonder about the trees." The Sound of Trees, Robert Frost

         "I don't know where she thought she was headed as she ascended the little tower
with such confidence." Ladybug, Billy Collins


"Two roads diverged in a wood..." The Road Not Taken, Robert Frost

"Looking out of a wreath of fern..." For Once, Then, Something, Robert Frost

"Look, the trees are turning their own bodies into pillars of light..."  
In Blackwater Woods, Mary Oliver

I hope your weekend was poetically lovely!
