| Hal Borlandb: Sterling, Nebraska, May 14, 1900 d: Sharon, Connecticut, Feb 22, 1978 American. Author. Books on nature include Hill Country Harvest, 1967; wrote outdoor editorials for New York Times, beginning in 1942.
A woodland in full color is awesome as a forest fire, in magnitude at least, but a single tree is like a dancing tongue of flame to warm the heart. April is a promise that May is bound to keep. Man is wise and constantly in quest of more wisdom; but the ultimate wisdom, which deals with beginnings, remains locked in a seed. There it lies, the simplest fact of the universe and at the same time the one which calls forth faith rather than reason. October is the fallen leaf, but it is also a wider horizon more clearly seen. It is the distant hills once more in sight, and the enduring constellations above them once again. The ultimate wisdom which deals with beginnings, remains locked in a seed. There it lies, the simplest fact of the universe and at the same time the one which calls faith rather than reason. To know after absence the familiar street and road and village and house is to know again the satisfaction of home. You can't be suspicious of a tree, or accuse a bird or a squirrel of subversion or challenge the ideology of a violet. |
