My Featured Blogger this week is Kiora Tash of The Myth of Trees. I only recently began following Kiora, and know almost nothing about her except that I enjoy the way she thinks and the way she feels. She describes herself as “an explorer, a human child of earth” who shares “stories of interconnection.” A bit heady (not exactly “I have two dogs and I like pizza”), but it captures the spirit of her inviting site. In this post, Kiora introduces us to yet another kindred spirit, poet Paul Laurence Dunbar, whose words transport us to the summer place he describes–and make us long to remain there.
Take the journey!

How very kind. Thank you! I am glad it pleased you.
The pleasure’s mine, Kiora.
