I cherish the solitude

of walking alone in nature —

no feelings of loneness

where everything around

me is alive and alert

to my presence

a spirit of closeness

and unity serving

in ecstatic integration.

There, standing alone

A mariposa lily

Adorns the dry field.

Insect lover of the sun,
Joy of thy dominion!
Sailor of the atmosphere,
Swimmer through the waves of air,
Voyager of light and noon,
Epicurean of June,
Wait I prithee, till I come
Within ear-shot of thy hum,–
All without is martyrdom.

— from The Humblebee by Ralph Waldo Emerson

The Photographer

He moves along the mountain trail
carrying a camera over his left shoulder.
This has been a bad year for wildflowers,
only a few scattered here and there
tossed side-to-side by strong spring winds.
Most of the flowers he will see along the trail
he has photographed in better years of plenty,
still he hikes with hopes for the a few images
made special by his every changing imagination.
