Harmony

Driving through the country side on a sunny day in late winter, I was struck by the serenity of this scene, in a rural community Maryhill, Waterloo County. The harmony of nature, humanity and the exhilarating feeling of being alive resonates as I yearn for reassurance, safety and inner peace in these uncertain times of a pandemic.
