“The
trees that have it in their pent-up buds
To
darken nature and be summer woods---
Let
them think twice before they use their powers
To
blot out and drink up and sweep away
These
flowery waters and these watery flowers
From
snow that melted only yesterday.”—Pulitzer Prize-winning American poet Robert
Frost (1874-1963), “Spring Pools,” in West-Running
Brook (1928)
I
took this photo in April 2017 in Overpeck Park, only a couple of miles from where
I live in Bergen County, NJ.
