King Arthur Movie Tristan

I KNOW a place where summer strives

With such a practised frost,

She each year leads her daisies back,

Recording briefly, “Lost.”



But when the south wind stirs the pools

And struggles in the lanes,

Her heart misgives her for her vow,

And she pours soft refrains



Into the lap of adamant,

And spices, and the dew,

That stiffens quietly to quartz,

Upon her amber shoe.

-Emily Dickinson













These photos were taken at Prospect Mountain in Lake George.

THE SKIES can’t keep their secret!

They tell it to the hills—

The hills just tell the orchards—

And they the daffodils!



A bird, by chance, that goes that way

Soft overheard the whole.

If I should bribe the little bird,

Who knows but she would tell?



I think I won’t, however,

It’s finer not to know;

If summer were an axiom,

What sorcery had snow?



So keep your secret, Father!

I would not, if I could,

Know what the sapphire fellows do,

In your new-fashioned world!


-Emily Dickinson

I took this photo a couple of weekends ago on a family outing to a mountain in Upstate NY. I love how the trees are reflected in the water.



I also wanted to wish my blogging friends in the U.S. a Happy Thanksgiving!!

I am thankful for so many things, including your friendship. Enjoy your day, may it be full of family, friends, many blessings and happy memories.


I won't be posting again till next week. I'll be back with a book review by Monday the latest :O)

THE MOUNTAIN sat upon the plain

In his eternal chair,

His observation omnifold,

His inquest everywhere.




The seasons prayed around his knees,

Like children round a sire:

Grandfather of the days is he,

Of dawn the ancestor.




-Emily Dickinson

I took these photos last weekend on an outing to a mountain in Upstate New York. We were up on the mountain and watched the sunset. It was really a sight to see and it was the perfect Fall day.

I took the photos above just as the sun was setting. We also saw a family of deer, but as luck would have it, the battery died on my camera.

This mountain overlooks the Hudson River Valley and Hessian Lake. This is the view from the top. I love how the foliage has turned beautiful shades of orange, red and burgundy.









*next wednesday I will post another photo from our mountain outing*
