Discovery
There it was,
only a short walk
into the trees,
on the side of the road.
Just like in The Beginning Place
by Ursula K. Le Guin.
If only I had been alone.
I would have done more.
More than just
remembered the book.
Would have entered.
Would have searched
for Irene.
Another sketch from recent visit
to Colorado.
Hidden between a road descending,
or I suppose climbing, depending on up or down, and the side of a dense treed
mountain range. This beginning place happened to be somewhere between Boulder
and Denver. I lost all sense of time..
9”x 12” ink and watercolor
Think I'd lose all sense of time here too!
ReplyDeleteWOW...this is so enchanting a place...has now inspired me to search for Irene...:))
She is worth finding along with the other characters in on of my favorite stories by Ursula LeGuin.
