Composed as a result of his two year Florida sojourn
circa 1884-1886, it pictures what he saw, perhaps felt,
but definitely what he saw.
As I listen to it the thought comes to mind that much of
what he saw then is still to be seen, or as I’m fond of
saying “just like the Indians left it”. I don’t know about
you, but as for me how they left it is how I like it.
