Sky Fish

Creating a book for the Trails and Trillium H2O show, I have been re-reading parts of Walden, searching for quotations that complement the pictures I have selected for the book.

Thoreau wrote "Sky water, It needs no fence," and the early spring sun and pond and fish and trees listened.

How can I mind a gray day when I see what he did: "the bare face of the pond full of glee and youth, as if it spoke the joy of the fishes within it"?
