| Raven flying over the Ravenseyrie Sorraia Mustang Preserve East Bluff, Manitoulin Island, Ontario |
There is a timelessness for me, living up on the wild East Bluff among the horses and working down in my studio on the bay within the human realm.
Seasons come and go...That which was once young seems less so...and yet walking in winter fog among such elemental things - especially when away from the hum of humanity, one feels very much like the plants and animals feel...that there is no meaning in a calendar that says it is the year 2020 A.D.
This delights me!
This is endlessly inspiring!
This keeps me sane!

| Contentment presided over by the Red Osier Dogwood and the Fog |
 |
| In the distance, the Zen Elm, meditative as always |
 |
| The Maples in their advanced age |
 |
| What a idea for an abstract painting this presents! |
Forever -- is composed of Nows --
'Tis not a different time --
Except for Infiniteness --
And Latitude of Home --
From this --experienced Here --
Remove the Dates -- to These --
Let Months dissolve in further Months --
And Years -- exhale in Years --
Without Debate -- or Pause --
Or Celebrated Days --
No different Our Years would be --
From Anno Domini's --
-Emily Dickinson
