Poem included in Program of Memorial Service for James Snowden Jackson on 2 June 1985 at Hale Farm and Western Reserve Village, Bath, Ohio. It was written James Snowden Jackson for the Thoughts on Beauty Exhibition at The Akron Art Institute, February 1964

Winter, Sunmmer, morning, evening.... To see true beauty I need but look from my window or walk in my yard. There before me lies the quiet meadow and beyond are the wooded hills. Always the same and yet always djfferent. The valley and the hills are everlasting. The trees grow slowly through the years. The colors change from hour to hour with the sky, day to day with storm or sunshine and month to month with the seasons. What artist could blend so many greens on his pallet? Who can describe the bold crimsons and gold of Autumn? How delicate is the gentle blanket of morning mist! One can travel far to see the countless beauties of nature. Comparisons are futile and meaningless. I have admired the rugged fords of Norway and the bald peaks of Yosemite. But I gain strength each day at home from the beauty of our own Cuyahoga Valley.
