I run out to see the joggers. The prettiest one screams. I am not scary! I think. A mean old one is blaring a can that hurts my ears. I run back into the thicket. What is wrong with these two-leggers? Do they not know I only want a bit of food? Dang! Here comes that uniform guy with the badge. The one...

The Yellowstone Puzzle
A wondrous thing is the human spirit. Nothing else that God has made comes near it. Witness Nature that we call Yellowstone - It stands exemplar and it stands alone in pitting man against his own planet - Just blood and bone against solid granite. A volcano that can turn our world dark we turned into our own National Park. The paradox of...

The Enigma of Yellowstone
The Yellowstone River runs through the heart Of a bold and magnificent treasure. An explorer's paradise from the start, It has proven perfect for our leisure. A natural wildlife home and preserve To bison and wolves and elk and mule deer. Serenity reins, as creatures deserve, While hot springs and geysers boil and appear. Majestic mountains and deep valley grass - Then Winter...

Experts reckon it will change life here whole continents wiped out by poisonous gas. Africa certainly will be hard hit and as for Europe that's any body's guess. America will...

Thermals of Yellowstone
Snow does not win victory at Hell’s door, It transforms to screaming steam, rising above the piled snowflakes. Lowly bacteria feed on the heat. The shimmering water stained, as colored glass in a cathedral. A restless beauty reigns imminent, with destruction a growing sister, certain to spoil a glorious landscape. A tumble beneath the inviting waters, harkens instant reincarnation, and a meeting with a vast universe....

Yellowstone, 1971
We sat there just groovin', our senses so keen Trippin' and giggling, taking in nature’s scene We smirked as visitors drove up in blind haste "Take a picture! Let's go! No time left to waste!" We were smug, silly hippies, naive to the core So certain we had found the key to that door Those tourists were clueless, yet then so...

Premium Member Yellowstone, 1995 Or Thereabouts
I can hear the water, a giggle almost, in the small cold spring by which I sat that foggy morning, sketchbook, pen, and watercolors in hand. A weed with a single white flower grew from the innards of a half submerged, humus-bound log alive with neon-green moss. A brilliant web spun by a tiny jewel-orange spider laced...
