NATURE RESERVE ON THE CITY'S EDGE

" In this book James E Garratt has written a love story, a tone poem... It's astonishing to think that something this relatively untouched still exists in the Anthropocene Age. But it's not in a fairy tale book, it's in Vaughan [Ontario, Canada]. Garratt writes knowledgeably and with as much sensitivity about black walnuts trees as stoneflies... takes us inside the delicious natural world and eloquently makes the case for its protection... it is a gem..." reviewed by Susan Grimbly in October, 2018 issue (#638) of TORONTO FIELD NATURALIST.

Pages flutter

Doors open, outward...

Lemon-frosted moonlight

Green apples

Cold water

Gritty dirt

A bee's sting

A European Fire Ant

An Owl's lost call in the night

Trees creaking in winter wind

Freezing.Thawing. Cycles

Circling 'round

A coyote's starlit eyes

A bulldozer belches

Living things rustle in flight

Summer meadows spread once again, calm, for another night

A farm-gate swings open...
