Porch cave meditation
the beautiful way: weather and time returning the cedar to earth (click photograph for larger view) A seed in the earth grows into a cedar tree which men harvest and fabricate into lumber. I fashion the boards into my porch; which serves me for 25 years; only to be reclaimed by the atmosphere; due, in part, […]
