the marsh holds its secrets
in shades of green
and slivers seen
of bullfrogs and herons
and red-winged black birds there in
that mysterious, almost sensual world
of whispers, of sighs, of hidden life unfurled
the marsh holds its secrets
in shades of green
and slivers seen
of bullfrogs and herons
and red-winged black birds there in

of whispers, of sighs, of hidden life unfurled

I have always been caught by how a marsh becomes silent on your approach, but returns to life and shares its secrets as you sit or stand quietly. βCurt

Yes, that is very true Curt. It is just totally filled with life, and yet it is usually very quiet and calm.

Like a slithering snake and the splash of a frog escaping. Not much noise at all unless the frog gets caught. π βCurt
