NEAR PROVIDENCE 6.1.21

”Joy is at one with itself as radiance beyond self.” Desmond, 290.

In and out of the

bushes overhanging the

cove, the songs of small

birds, song sparrows and

others. It’s worth coming out

here to hear it while

it lasts. Soon the boat

people will return and blast

what they call music.
