After a week of hard rains, flash floods, flood warnings, and continual drizzle, this morning presents a different prospect.
Winter is coming. The sky is metal gray. The temperature has moved beyond refreshing into the region of downright cold. The ground no longer looks sodden because it is beginning to look solid.
A perfect day for some Robert Frost. I recently picked up a copy of Robert Frost Versed in Country Things, poems selected by Edward Connery Latham and illustrated with wonderfully complementary photographs by B.A. King. There are only twenty poems from the immense trove of Frost's work and include none of his best known poems. But the ones that are here are good and as mentioned, the combination of these particular poems with the beautiful photographs of B.A. King make for an excellent wintry morning reading.
