A New England Winter
The Darkling Thrush
Thomas Hardy
I leant upon a coppice gate
When Frost was spectre-gray,
And Winter’s dregs made desolate
The weakening eye of day.
The tangled bine-stems scored the sky
Like strings of broken lyres,
And all mankind that haunted nigh
Had sought their household fires.
Appears in a collection of twelve winter poems curated by Pan Macmillan.
Robb & Bea
Robb and Bea hosted an intimate, family-only wedding at The Whitney Farm Estate in Oxford, ME. All hands were on deck to help; some cooked, and others prepped. From the very beginning, the couple had planned for a DIY approach. The bride wore a dress that she handcrafted herself after having been inspired by her mother who had done the same some 20+ years prior. For the confetti toss, family cut into the freshly fallen leaves from the nearby October maple trees. The couple's wedding favors were sourced locally, enlisting the help of a family-owned farm for honey and beeswax candles. Mainely Pig Roast helped with the catering and Hanna Daman of Maine's Maple Creemee Co. safely served up a sweet night-cap from the window of her ice cream truck.
