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 POEM: “Rain/Light”

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

Dimensionless
blotter, daylight
like white ink soaked
away – take the sinking
east and say this
is what it’s come to –
cyanic bruise
sutured
at the ocean’s edge,
sky thick as your
palm print against
double glazed
window glass . . .

Fifteen billion years,
blue out of
the three-degree dark,
light has misted down
to be here, never
catching up with its own
dispatch and drive.
Each of us,
no more resourceful
than stars, touched
with the abandoned
thought of home . . .

An excerpt from Rain/Light by C. Buckley
