snows melted… rains fell
foot by foot it rose - then raged
life’s pieces swam by 🦊❤️
Yesterday morning the Wissahickon Creek was raging due to the previous day’s heavy rain. There was a birdhouse stranded in one of the small tributaries that feed the creek. The sight brought back vivid memories of the Monongahela River flooding in springtime when I was a kid. I remembered debri, pieces of houses, coal barges that broke loose from their docks and many other things speeding by in the raging current. It was quite an experience to ponder as a little kid… it still is today. 🦊❤️
