… and on another day, Sunset Crater appeared to be the cauldron for a witch’s brew with low clouds flowing in and out of it … there was a low-level cloud layer that extended all the way to the Grand Canyon that day. Sunset Crater erupted a mere 950 years ago, and the field is still an active one.
The shot below is of some wood that has been ravaged in the Sunset Crater area … it is at once beautiful and like clouds you can dream on the wood and come up with fantastical creatures … like the dragon head in the lower left corner.
Very short one as leaving for Lake Pleasant in a little over four hours and need a few Zzzs … have a beautiful day, smile and keep breathing … you are here!
Cheers,
Ted
O World of green and shafts of golden sun; of
nightly, silent, silver moonlight; and the strange
songs of lisping winds! O time of dreams, and trysts,
and olden memories come to life! Sweet summer, may
I sing as thou, for every leaf of thine is pregnant with
music in the soft winds, and every rose inspires the
tenderness of song. I yield myself to the thousand
enchantments of sky and field and wood, and play again
like a child on the soft green of the earth. And as the
God of the universe has made thee to bloom in tenderness,
so also may my heart be softened, and the
gardens of my life be made to bloom again.
A Prayer of Summer, by Max Ehrmann
