Mississippi: Lost + Found
I lost myself in what I thought I knew about Mississippi.
As a lifetime resident my knowledge had grown stale.
The white tail deer and mockingbird were her only inhabitants. It wasn’t until I opened my eyes that I found the diverse ecosystems that make up this beautiful state.
I found the stained glass of a gopher tortoise’s shell, the brilliancy of the red-capped sandhill crane, the ever-watchful tension of a fox squirrel, the crowded skies of the delta.
I found Mississippi.
