Leaves of Grass

Walt Whitman, poet and printer, used the term to invoke the ephemeral nature of the written word. These strands established themselves on a point bar in the Brazos River during our recent long hot dry summer, and now risk burial or erosion as the river rises and falls with returning rain. Nature operates in a spirit of abundance, indifferent to risk.

 

Grass grows where it can.

Leaden sky dims noon shadows.

Who sees tomorrow?

 

Happy Mono Monday!
