The
Tender Cares of Autumn by William S. Phillips
The seasons take another turn in Phillips
Bay, North America's quintessential hometown. Your stroll along
Seven-Mile Walk has reached the Beecher House, where the famed poet
lived through the mid-1960s. A young girl, her basket laden with
freshly cut flowers, pauses to admire the fiery red and tawny orange
of the Indian summer maples, as the poet certainly once did. The
sun has dipped below the horizon leaving a soft-pink glow in the
sky and one by one the lights begin to twinkle across the Inner
Bay. Soft water sounds are carried on an irregular warm-cool breeze,
another hint that fall has arrived at the hidden treasure that is
Phillips Bay. Published from the artist's original oil painting.
