Essex, a lovely town on the Connecticut River. Lynda and
I visited the place often when friends of ours live there, which

they no longer do.

ESSEX -- Beneath a steel-gray sky, Erica Funkhouser seems at peace with the world in her backyard. "That's where we play softball," she says, walking toward a big open field behind her farmhouse. She stares at her garden and at the thick woods behind her home.


Since she was a child, Funkhouser has been observing nature and writing poetry about what she has seen and heard.
