Bubble Rock, in Acadia National Park, Maine. It was left there by the last Ice Age. Such ‘‘glacial erratics’’ cam be found all over New England.
“The forest floor is white,
but here & there a boulder rises
with its glacial arrogance
& brooks that bubble
under the sheets of ice
remind us that the tundra of the soul
will soften
just a little
towards the spring.’’
— From “New England Winter,’’ by Erika Jong
