October 31st. An early, cold autumn morning.
Chill all
around. The River rushes with
purpose. To move, to move. Everything around is still, |
|
||||||||||||
|
not the river.
It is a magical time of memories and
enchantments. Slowly
the light begins
to creep down the embankment. Adding gold to the |
|
||||||||||||
|
dense atmosphere.
Silver dances lightly
on the river surface. The silver turns to bright white in the foam of the moving
river. The sky is |
|
||||||||||||
|
gray and reflected
in the water. The rocks on the side of the
river catch the shine and reflect it back. A surprise flits across the screen
from |
|
||||||||||||
|
right to left about
12 minutes onto the river. Later the first fall snow storm. Winter. The
first storm of the fall begins with
icy rain which turns |
|
||||||||||||
|
slowly into soft fluffy snow. The snow is gaily falling
over trees, grass, rocks. Watching the
falling snow flakes, one feels silent inside as the |
|
||||||||||||
|
snow lightly
sticks to the waiting
rocks, and branches of the trees, creating a white coat. The stillnes
is strong in this storm, even the river |
|
||||||||||||
|
seems to flow faster on it's trip. Another surprise greets
us as first a whistle sounds
and then after just a few moments….a train appears at |
|
||||||||||||
|
the edge of the
River's canyon. The train, too, has a purpose and a destination, loaded with goods from far away soon to be
delivered. The |
|
||||||||||||
|
river rumbles along
with a frosty murmur. The deep rage of the swirling waters and suddenly……Spring becomes the dance of green. The |
|
||||||||||||
|
water brings life and
energy to all it touches.
The hues of
green many as the
eye can behold. The water is
high and serious about it's |
|
||||||||||||
|
movement. Tree roots are covered by the raging river and branches dip low into the stream of liquid. One is
moved with poetry about new life, |
|
||||||||||||
|
ideas, music. The words have rhythm
that is thousands of years old. We can
hear our ancestors in the ancient water. We can see the dance |
|
||||||||||||
|
of the renaissance
steps. Soon we have Summer's
lazy moving ripples . The River
is just rambling along with a sweet song. Abundance is |
|
||||||||||||
|
everywhere in the plants that touch the
water, in the leaves swinging In the trees overhead, in the bright and gleaming sun.
We now hear, |
|
||||||||||||
|
"Summer Daze", a new piece
written just for this project. |
