Morning Visitors
“When in the fresh mornings I go into
my garden before anyone is awake,
I go for the time being into perfect happiness.”
- Cecilia Thaxter
I recently discovered some of Cecilia Thaxter's poetry and writings are available on line. I have been enjoying An Island Garden by Cecilia Thaxter

Wonderful photos!The squirrel looks like he wants to say “good morning “ and stay for a chat.
Aren't you lucky to have these charming and colourful visitors. These are super photos! And a perfect accompanying quote. I don't know Celia Thaxter, but this book is a charmer - with illus. by Childe Hassam yet! Thanks so much for posting the link.
Oh, Celia! I have not thought of Celia Thaxter in years. I actually have the book, believe it or not. Thank you for reminding me! These are wonderful photos of your morning visitors.
I think I want to read Celia Thaxter. And, such lovely morning visitors...
So beautiful, endment. Wow. I love that woodpecker. That red is just spectacular. Thanks for the link to Celia Thaxter, too.
These photos are amazing! I'd love to live where these visitors are. Your blog is so lovely and spiritual in its emphasis on nature and poetry.

I really think i am lucky. Celia Thaxter is a new acquaintance but once I found her poetry and writing I am bumping into her all the time.
