A wall of old tools –
lit by the light of their time –
aching to be used.
We went on a lantern-light tour of some of the historical sites in Washington Crossing State Park last week. I love that feeling, of history simultaneously impossibly far away and yet tantalizingly close.

Beautiful photo and haiku. There is something about old tools that I find very appealing.
very nice...really like the idea of tools aching to be used...like our talents, I guess
Shelley, I loved this haiku and image - there is a whole building of lovely old tools here aching to be used, and my own haiku for this week was about the door of the place. Happy New Year! (Cate)
