Frozen Lake

Frozen Lake

Completing an inspection of a condo on Ford Lake in Ypsilanti Michigan I chatted with the buyer on the balcony for a bit. We talked about the lake and what a great view these units have. The condos are perfectly situated right on the lake and each unit has it’s own boat dock.

I’ve performed several inspections in this neighborhood and each time tell myself I should own one of these units.

The thing is this portion of the lake is quite busy in the summer months with boats, jet-skis and all manner of water sports. I’m more of a small quiet lake kind of guy.

Still the sunsets are always nice here.

Cold

I’m trying to appreciate nature even though I don’t like cold and snow. Still there’s beauty in this season I think or at least I keep telling myself that.

Yesterday after my last inspection I stopped at a nature preserve and took photos with my iPhone. While I tried to capture something all I could think about was how warm it was in my truck so I ran back to it.

Full Moon

Full Moon by Robert Hayden

No longer throne of a goddess to whom we pray,
no longer the bubble house of childhood’s
tumbling Mother Goose man,

The emphatic moon ascends–
the brilliant challenger of rocket experts,
the white hope of communications men.

Some I love who are dead
were watchers of the moon and knew its lore;
planted seeds, trimmed their hair,

Pierced their ears for gold hoop earrings
as it waxed or waned.
It shines tonight upon their graves.

And burned in the garden of Gethsemane,
its light made holy by the dazzling tears
with which it mingled.

And spread its radiance on the exile’s path
of Him who was The Glorious One,
its light made holy by His holiness.

Already a mooted goal and tomorrow perhaps
an arms base, a livid sector,
the full moon dominates the dark.
