Order is the sun walking arced trails across the sky,
Downward is the rain’s motion as it is tumbles from the heavens,
It follows gravity’s pull, carving rivers in the earth.
Rapid is the wind racing up the slope from the sea,
It shifts; sporadic and indecisive,
Sometimes it brings slow fog, which lingers,
Sometimes it feeds a sparking fire.
Pathways of earth,
Pathways of sky.
What does it mean to be human and to dwell in this changing and dramatic landscape?
A landscape with expansive views? A landscape of rain, slope, ocean, fog, wind, fire and sun? What is the human pathway within this space?
Humans are caught in between-
are pulled by earth and by sky.
They are reminded by gravity that they are beings of the physical realm
And yet when they look to the sky their thoughts often transcend the physical.
The human is the horizon, a connection between earth and sky
This dwelling is about human experience in nature
It is about observing the balance of natural pathways and cycles
