Dawn At Whalebone Mansion

Wealth from whales
They thought – was
Forever.

Hope unsullied by
Knowledge of
Scarcity
Or pain.

Momentary hope without
Maturity or experience
Is nestled upon
Ignorance.

Sunrise
The Penniman House
A captain’s mansion
Chatham, Cape Cod, Massachusetts

We vacationed in New England last month, just before flying to Turkey on what was more a business trip. Of course dawn on Cape Cod always sings to me an hour or so before it rises. And it pulls me out to ride or walk the back roads, this morning in Chatham which is on the Atlantic side of the Cape. From the chanticleer above the Penniman House you can see the sweep of Chatham harbor behind me as I took this image.
