Nature Lifts, Carries Us

If, when we were young we tramped through forests of Ne­braska cottonwoods, or raised pigeons on a rooftop in Queens, or fished for Ozark bluegills, or felt the swell of a wave that traveled a thousand miles before lifting our boat, then we were bound to the natural world and remain so today. Nature still informs our yearslifts us, carries us.
