From North to South

Amy's ramblings. Once upon a time these ramblings pertained to my 5 months in Guatemala and Honduras. Then they followed the ebb and flow of my final semester in Alaska. From there things really went south ... to Argentina, Bolivia and Chile. After 8 months in the Andes, I fell back under Alaska's spell … working at a newspaper and wandering mountains. Now I'm somewhat south again ... in Jackson Hole, WY, teaching ski school on the clock and making fresh tracks off the clock.

Monet's Alaska

Oh the wildflowers,
dots of pink, purple, blue
Sprinkled in deep, vibrant green
Forget-me-nots and columbine
Bluebells and wild roses
Indian paintbrush
And a dozen other blooms
Names for which, I do not know
Out my backdoor,
on a mountainside
Clapping and whispering
as I stride by
An afternoon excursion
into the wilds so near
A summer canvass for Monet
Unordered beauty,
divinely graced
