North of Gilroy

Farms in California are a bit different than what I remember as a kid in the Midwest and out on the plains.  The land along the coast is gentle and low lying.  The ocean brings in mist and fog, creating at times a dreamy, otherworldly quality that is soft and ethereal.  Fog comes and goes, scenery appears and vanishes.  Colors can be pale or deeply rich depending on light and cloud.

  1. Thanks, Richard! I was trying so hard to remember the name of Morgan Hill! Also, just stopped by your blog and had such a good laugh. I love poetry like that – makes my day – so I subscribed!
