The Perspective Spirit And Relations Of Great Art

Here are worlds of experience
beyond the world of aggressive man,
beyond history, beyond science.
The mood and qualities of nature and
the relations of great art
are difficult to define; we can grasp them
only in the depths of our perceptive spirit.
~ Ansel Adams

Wonder, Imagination And Surprise

A world without wonder,
and a way of mind without wonder,
becomes a world without imagination,
and without imagination humanity is a poor
and stunted creature.
Religion, poetry, and all the arts
have their sources in this upwelling
of wonder and surprise.
Let us thank God that so much will forever
remain out of reach, safe from our inquiry,
inviolate forever from our touch.
~ Henry Beston in Northern Farm

Gratitude From Future Generations

 If future generations are to remember us with gratitude
rather than contempt,
we must leave them something more
than the miracles of our technology.

We must leave them a glimpse of the world
as it was in the beginning,
not just after we got through with it.
~ President Lyndon Johnson 
while signing the wilderness act of 1964

Slugs And Bugs - Lyrics - 1990

 A Kid For the Wild - CD - 1990

     C
     Let's hear it for the slugs!      For The Slugs!

     And the bugs!           And the Bugs!
      C                                                 F
     And the rats and the bats, and the slippy, slimy critters,
                   C                                    G
     And the little ones wherever they're found.
                          C                                F
     For it's the teeny-weeny tiny and the gritty-gratty grimy
               C              G          C        F
     That make the world go round, round,
                C             G            C
     They make the world go round!     :First Chorus

      C                                                F
     The snails hide their tails, and the worms like to squirm,
                       C                           G
     And the slug gives a shrug, he's feeling so smug,
                  C                       F
     The caterpillar makes her way up a stem,
       C                                    G       C
     What would we do without all of them?

  Let's hear it for the slugs and the bugs
   And the slippy, slimy critters,
   And the little ones wherever they're found,
  For it's the teeny-weeny tiny and the gritty-gratty grimy
  That make the world go round, round,
   They make the world go round.  :Chorus

     Oh, there are ladybugs, and tumblebugs, and smelly stink bugs
     Potato bugs, and love bugs, and even doodlebugs,
     There are fleas and bees, playing in the breeze,
     What would we do without all of these?
      (Chorus)
     The newt is a beaut, she's looking so cute,
     The snake gives a shake, he's heading for the lake,
     The louse and the mouse are going for a swirl,
     There's all kinds of life in this wide world.
      (Chorus)
     The turtle does a hurtle, getting over a log,
     And the frog does a jog, hopping through the bog,
     Moths and butterflies they look so neat,
     The smallest ones make the biggest treat.
                    (Repeat First Chorus)
