    … back from space and down to the ponds in Page Springs where a great blue heron is sticking a landing on the very edge of the berm between ponds … miss it and a go around is required less he slip down the plastic liner into the pond. He ends up there anyhow as shortly thereafter he nailed a nice fish in the pond and scrambled back up with trophy firmly speared on his beak.

    Another shot I like as the airflow over the feathers is totally disrupted and lifting them.

    Beautiful day underway and lots of projects to complete … or not. Bring a smile through the day with you and think of things that will keep it there … keep breathing …

    Cheers

    Many of the poems of Ehrmann run several pages … here are some excerpts from, I Sit And Wait
    Amazon has many of his works and this one contains a large part of his work: https://smile.amazon.com/poems-Max-Ehrmann-Scholars-Choice/dp/1295988038/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=max+ehrmann&qid=1591688554&sr=8-3
     
    I sit and wait upon my soul tonight,
    And watch the changing sky,
    The clouds and stars that fly
    Within the silent moon’s far reaching light
    That glorifies the night.
     
    So each one to his wish, and as for me,
    I sit tonight and wait
    In slumb’rous moonlight late,
    To feel the freedom of the world in me
    Like waves of a shoreless sea.
     
    Far vanished earth, I journey with the dead
    That smile in bliss afar
    On yonder liquid star,
    And on and on to ruby worlds of red
    From earthly vision fled;
     
    Where lonely faces I have known on earth
    Now smile in endless bliss,
    And fling to me the kiss
    Of love, ‘mid twilight music soft with mirth
    Remembered long ere birth.
     
    Oh, wake me not! but let me still beguile
    Myself in this sweet sleep,
    As through the world I creep
    On nameless wings, and rest myself, and smile …
    Let me be dead a while.
     
    Max Ehrmann

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
