Welcome!

Welcome! This is a place to share how we celebrate & deepen our relationship to Nature. Here you will find stories, images, & ideas about wilderness, human nature, & soulfulness. Drawing from the experiences of everyday living, the topics on this blog include: forays into the natural world, the writing life, community service, meditation, creativity, grief & loss, inspiration, & whatever else emerges from these. I invite you on this exploration of the wild within & outside of us: the inner/outer landscape.

Monday Musings POEMS: “The Frog” & “A Huge Frog and I”

TEALarbor stories’ Monday Musings are quotes, poems, & practices offering simple ways to explore the ecotone of the inner/outer landscape.


The Frog

What a wonderful bird the frog are!
...in our bathroom early this morning...
When he stands he sit almost;
When he hop he fly almost.
He ain’t got no sense hardly;
He ain’t got no tail hardly either.
When he sit, he sits on what he ain’t got
almost.
Anonymous British


A Huge Frog and I

A huge frog and I,
staring at each other,
neither of us moves.
Kobayashi Issa
