Charles E. Burchfield, Journals, Vol. 29B, May 13, 1917

Heat waves at M –
     Bobolink –
     Sunlight top of Valley –
     Bubbles breaking in rings on water.
     Rattling rain –
     Pollen with fresh wind + on leaves jump here + there hit by rain–
     Booming white clouds
     Little birds going up hollow – a flutter of leaves down hillside-.
     Late afternoon in Field at Posts; looming white clouds  s W cold wind -
      On hills before Dutchmans; sun gone [dark] earth – all at once top of Dutchmansn Hill turns – red, as if sunlight same from far off   same away from our universe – the vivid orange afterglow last till long after nine o’clock -
