~Yosemite~

A place of beauty~
A place of wonder and splendor~
Displaying God’s handiwork reserved singularly
for this one place…
...providing its sojourners with  the sensation of discovering
hidden treasure as they venture here.

Beauty, wonder, splendor, majesty~
waiting to be discovered and enjoyed.

With the eye of the soul,
 one can absorb the peace and magnificence of this place.

Yet this absorption cannot be hurried~
It  takes  time   for  it  to  sink  in.

TIME...
One resource distributed with exact equality to all mankind.

Yet…
Some seem “rich” with time;
Others seem “poor”.

Some take plenty of time to explore here and drink in
 the wonders of this place.
Others are driven by an invisible task master...
...nervously anticipating its next demand...
they are prevented from relaxing and enjoying where they are at the moment...

...And people...
Too many people here in Yosemite~
The crowded busses,
The over-filled parking lots,
The agitation and short tempers that overcrowding brings…

Somehow the tempo of urban life
 has invaded the peace of this rural nature preserve.

These extremes clash in an annoying sound.
Yet, not all can hear this discord playing
 in the silence of
“what should be”
