The kids, dropped off at day care and a number of hours to burn before the end of the year, I took a Friday off with a camera and headed to Western Massachusetts during a pandemic in the Fall.

scenic view

by Donald Hall

Every year the mountains
get paler and more distant —
trees less green, rock piles
disappearing — as emulsion
from a billion Kodaks
sucks color out.
In fifteen years
Monadnock and Kearsage,
the Green Mountains
and the White, will turn
invisible, all
tint removed
atom by atom to albums
in Medford and Greenwich,
while over the valleys
the still intractable granite
rears with unseeable peaks
fatal to airplanes.
