Grafiti below the bridge on the Norwottuck Rail Trail Bridge in Northampton…. I took this photo when we were out on the Connecticut River on our Moomba. A sense of peace on the water overwhelms me and the photography on the water just seems to “pop”
“’twas ever thus”
a quote derived from a poem written in 1817
by Thomas Moore
Oh! ever thus, from childhood’s hour,
I’ve seen my fondest hopes decay;
I never lov’d a tree or flower,
But ’twas the first to fade away.
I never nurs’d a dear gazelle,
To glad me with its soft black eye,
But when it came to know me well,
And love me, it was sure to die! Now too —
the joy most like divine
Of all I ever dreamt or knew,
To see thee, hear thee, call thee mine, —
Oh misery! must I lose that too?
I really like it in black & white
