During the Perseids


3 1/2" x 5" hard ground etching
on Arches Cover with Daniel Smith black etching ink

A water ouzel dips beneath the stars
Its empty belly drives its heart and mind.
A water strider, mayfly nymph or grub
contains the world; is life, philosophy,
religion, wealth. The native roses grow
along the edges of the stream and bloom
and aren't disturbed. The moon is shattered and
the fragments glitter in the silent night. Posted by Picasa
