Boundary, n. In political geography, an imaginary line between two nations, separating the imaginary rights of one from the imaginary rights of another.
– Ambrose Bierce, The Devil’s Dictionary –
Arizona – Reflection of a fence – the boundary between wet and dry.
One time there was a picket fence
with space to gaze from hence to thence.
– Christian Morgenstern –
Restraining fence at the Grand Canyon – when common sense isn’t enough…
Don’t ever take a fence down until you know why it was put up.
– Robert Frost –
Arizona Sunset – the border between day and night.
I like that time is marked by each sunrise and sunset whether or not you actually see it.
