    join me for a walk into the wetlands

    Wetland Haiku

     Water reflects sun
    as it streams through Swamp Maple
    Pond Lilies thrive here

    Spring peepers sing out
    tree frogs croak intermittently
    Dragonflies buzz by

    Lush green surrounding
    ferns of all sizes waving
    as breezes blow on through

    Jack-in-the-pulpit
    only one, still immature
    A rare find indeed

    Tracks found in the mud
    prove that many living things
    Live and visit here

    Many wildflowers
    grow prolific on the trail
    To and from this place

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
