"I am content. I sit down at my desk, a bare kitchen table with a blotter, a bottle of ink, a sand dollar to weigh down one corner, a clam shell for a pen tray, the broken tip of a conch, pink-tinged, to finger, and a row of shells to set my thoughts spinning."

Anne Morrow Lindbergh
 

 

 

 

 

"We don't need more facts and we certainly don't need more things to do ­ we need life, and we've been looking for it ever since we lost paradise."

A word to us from the bougainvilleas themselves: " As long as we are able to be extravagant we will be hugely and damply extravagant. Then we will drop foil by foil to the ground. This is our unalterable task, and we do it joyfully."
                                              Thirst, Mary Oliver

 

 


 

"If you will stay close to nature, to its simplicity, to the small things hardly noticeable, those things can unexpectedly become great and immeasurable."
