One Fine Spring Day ...
“Spring
has returned. The earth is like a child that knows poems.”
~ Rainer Maria Rilke
~ 1875-1926
A
little boy takes in the beauty of one fine spring day on a late May afternoon
while perched in front of a tree at one of the highest elevations of Trexler
Nature Preserve, Schnecksville, Pennsylvania.

Running Where The Bluebells Bloom ...
“A
fine and subtle spirit dwells
In
every little flower,
Each
one its own sweet feeling breathes
With
more or less of power.
There
is a silent eloquence
In
every wild bluebell
That
fills my softened heart with bliss
That
words could never tell …
But when
I looked upon the bank
My
wandering glances fell
Upon
a little trembling flower,
A
single sweet bluebell …
O,
that lone flower recalled to me
My
happy childhood’s hours
When
bluebells seemed like fairy gifts
A
prize among the flowers,
Those
sunny days of merriment
When
heart and soul were free,
And
when I dwelt with kindred hearts
That
loved and cared for me …”
~
“The Bluebell”
~Anne Bronte
~ 1820-1849
This
little girl holds a single sweet bluebell as she runs through the beguiling
bluebells blooming in early April near the banks of the Swabia Creek at Lock
Ridge Park and Furnace Museum, Alburtis, Pennsylvania in this candid capture.
The
blooming of the multitude of Lock Ridge bluebells – also called grape hyacinth
– is a clarion call of spring in the Lehigh Valley, drawing many people to
photograph and glimpse their beauty in the span of the few weeks they bloom.
Lock
Ridge Park is a park built around an historic iron ore blast furnace just
outside Alburtis, Pennsylvania in the Lehigh Valley. The park preserves
portions of the former Lock Ridge Iron Works, which dates back to 1868. The
59-acre park was opened in August 1976.
