curious light

The sun shines and warms and lights us and we have no curiosity to know why this is so; but we ask the reason of all evil, of pain, and hunger, and mosquitoes and silly people.
--Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) American Poet, Lecturer and Essayist

A single bee balm flower alone in the deep woods, back-lit by the sun hitting a fallen tree in a nearby clearing.
