Ode to winter by Matthew Holloway
Ode, ode to the winter
What music plays to sonnet
While a world drifts to sleep
Leaves curl and flowers bow
Birds take flight to a further place
A touch of frost creeps in
Stealing the landscape of its colour
Soon all shall be held motionless
In the still of a winters season
Now in all its changing
The beauty and perfection of life
Is left open to be witnessed
Savoured by the eye of an artist
To feed the soul, nourish the heart
This melancholy season
This changing landscape
What beauty it reveals
In an ode to the winter
Faces of Wave Hill
This summer I had the opportunity to work at Wave Hill as part of the Bloomberg Arts Internship. It was a wonderful experience. I will admit that although it took time for me to open up to everyone, I am extremely grateful to have met such lovely people. During my time here I really enjoyed exploring the grounds. My favorite location must be the Flower Garden, hands down. I love the peace it brought me to observe different flowers and see bees, butterflies and moths fly around the area. Additionally, I loved seeing the magnificent view of the Hudson River and Palisades from the Pergola. I’ve taken so many photos of the grounds and have felt nothing but pure happiness spending my time here. Thank you to everyone who made my summer experience one to remember!
