The Whole Story Doesn't Show



I do an awful lot of thinking
and dreaming about things
in the past and the future -
the timelessness of the rocks
and the hills - all the people
who have existed there.
I prefer winter and fall,
when you feel the bone
structure of the landscape -
the loneliness of it,
the dead feeling of winter.
Something waits beneath it,
the whole story doesn't show.
--Andrew Wyeth
