The Canopy and the Cosmos:

What Kilmer Knew, What Sagan Never Dreamed « The Anchoress

I fell in love once again with the land—with meandering streams and farmers' €™ fields gone fallow, with mountain vistas and fog-shrouded meadows.  As one mile stretched into another, I gazed at the reflection of God in the verdant forests of pocosins and loblolly pines.  I imagined His handprint in the brick-red South Carolina mud, and in the sprawling wisteria, fragrant blooms drooping from boughs of sweetbay and willow oak.  The beauty, the mind-numbing variety, the creativity-- Well, I couldn't stop looking.
