Wet Wren Watching the Rain

All was silent as before — 

All silent save the dripping rain. 

~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Falling Rain

For after all the best thing one can do when

it is raining, is to let it rain.

- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Cattail In the Breeze

Then followed that beautiful season... Summer....

Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; and the landscape

Lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood.

~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Gull Landing

We have not wings we cannot soar; but, we have feet to scale and climb, by slow degrees, by more and more, the cloudy summits of our time. 
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
