G. E. Schwartz

Stone

For myself, I will seek no other final home than this remote country hiding place which gives me gentle nourishment when I am most in need of it; and still gives me solace. In dreams I leap across stone over stream, move light-footed between cities where I am known and am stopped suddenly by the sight of some distant hill or curving twilight river to see ghosts.
