Simply Daubing

While sitting quietly in Stage Fort Park a faint noise
in the brush alerted me that I was no longer alone.

What could he be doing?

Aha!

A little daub here, a little daub there ...

Simply Climbing

A lone tree climbs to the sky.
A stairway provides an aid along the way.

Simply Lonely

Thanksgiving Day at Stage Fort Park in Gloucester.


One Lonely Afternoon
Written by Russell Edson

Since the fern can't go to the sink for a drink of
water, I graciously submit myself to the task, bringing two
glasses from the sink.
And so we sit, the fern and I, sipping water together.

Of course I'm more complex than a fern, full of deep
thoughts as I am. But I lay this aside for the easy company
of an afternoon friendship.

I don't mind sipping water with a fern, even though,
had I my druthers, I'd be speeding through the sky for
Stockholm, sipping a bloody mary with a wedge of lime.

And so we sit one lonely afternoon sipping water
together. The fern looking out of its fronds, and I, looking
out of mine . . .

Simply Fishing

From Stage Fort Park, overlooking Gloucester Harbor,
they were out there for all to see.

Fishing from the shore.

Working the traps.

Working the line from a small boat.

Even the gulls were looking (and catching!) fish.

Simply Per cent'anni!

When walking around Stage Fort Park today, I came upon the tail end of wedding photos at the Antonio Gentile Bandstand. It was a perfect afternoon for pictures.

Simply Charming

Just a small, charming shack visible from Stage Fort Park.

Quite a harbor vista!

Almost appears to be a castle.

Simply A Tree -- Why?

If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be?
Why?

If a tree was a letter, what letter would it be?
Y?
