Visiting with Adolfo Caso Through Photography and Poetry...

Visiting Adolfo through his photography...

This rhododendron (I think) looks just like the azalea in my yard, just more red... The deer have been keeping my rhododendron from growing faster but it's steadily resisting its enemy...

And behind the bush as Adolfo wandered around...

Adolfo, you've made me want to get out and share my own beauties!

IDLENESS

Poet,

what are thou?

A Man

of yesteryear,

today,

and tomorrow,

of your heart

speaker

                            of waveless seas

which we see not

or touch

and yet despair?

~~~

Entrero

Buia e la caverna

ed ho paura di entrarvi

Vieni con me;

fammi  coraggio;

assieurarci la vita

e godere

insieme

il miracolo

d'un'altra scoperta

/

/

/

I will enter 

Dark and the cave

And I'm afraid to get in

Come with me; 

Let us live our lives

Give me courage; 

and enjoy

Of another discovery

together 

the miracle*
