The Peace Of Wild Things ...

 “… I come into the peace of wild things

who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief …

For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.”

 ~ “The Peace of Wild Things”

 ~ Wendell Berry

 ~ born 1934

 ~ American novelist, poet, environmental activist, cultural critic & farmer

I came into the peace of wild things when I spotted two whitetail deer button bucks, at right, crossing the Saucon Creek, tinged with the gold of a looming late October sunset, as other deer soak in the beauty of autumn along the Saucon Rail Trail, Hellertown, Pennsylvania.

Goodnight, Summer


" When summer gathers up her robes of glory, and, like a dream, glides away."

A beautiful spot of the  Saucon Creek in the waning summer a few days ago. The creek runs along the Saucon Rail Trail, Hellertown, Pennsylvania.
