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 WRITING PRACTICE: “Leaf”

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



Using the word “leaf” as a prompt, free-write quickly across an unlined, landscape-oriented page. Consider the season of autumn and its foliage, the pages that make up a book, tea leaves, or gold leaf. Allow your pen to continue moving even if your thoughts seem to stray off the prompt; it’s all relevant. Write as much or as little as you want.
