where sky and pond meet
—
“a field of water betrays the spirit that is in the air.
it is continually receiving new life and motion from above.
it is intermediate in its nature between land and sky.”

I love billabongs — just the sound of the word as much as the physical reality, but ponds are good too especially when ducks paddle along them 🙂
