Charles Burchfield, Journals, May 25, 1915

A brilliant sunrise – day slowly + beautifully dims with haze until at late afternoon the sun, from a dim glow, suddenly vanishes and the sky becomes a haphazard smear of dapples + sandbar rhythms –

 In Park hear Tseerie Bird – the beauty of it!

 I am always hurrying someplace at the critical point in a nature phenomena – Rain at evening –

 Charles E. Burchfield, May 25, 1915
