Pale amber sunlight falls across
The reddening October trees….
Are we not better and at home
In dreamful Autumn, we who deem
No harvest joy is worth a dream?
A little while and night shall come,
A little while, then, let us dream…
~Ernest Dowson, “Autumnal”

I'm Marty Luster, a retired attorney and politician. In 2010 my wife, mother-in-law, dog and I relocated from Central NY to Gloucester. I hope my photographs and poetry(?) reflect my love for this place and her people.

Marty thanks! A very beautiful spot and poem and second what Fred said on both! 🙂 I walked this area a lot end of the daily times route – and we would walk the rocks from lanes cove up around foley cove and out to the point. Before the shore line became blocked in some locations now from what I have been told. 🙂 Dave & KIm 🙂
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life. – Samuel Ullman
