Appalachia’s intermittent and ephemeral streams - those that only flow during the wet months of winter and spring or during rain events - and water seeps play a key role in the regional ecology, even when no water is flowing. Many riparian species depend on the naturally damp conditions and organic materials present in intermittent and ephemeral stream beds. A few of the vascular plants closely associated with intermittent and ephemeral streams and water seeps include: woodland stonecrop (Sedum ternatum); heartleaf foamflower (Tiarella cordifolia); Virginia waterleaf (Hydrophyllum virginianum); and northern maidenhair fern (Adiantum pedatum). The photos above were taken along the Mon River Trail in May, 2014, during an especially rainy spring.

@mossworm I thought you might like these tiny friends that I found in some ephemeral streams in Joshua Tree National Park :)

Ephemeral Stream - Elizabeth Willis

This is the way water thinks about the desert. The way the thought of water gives you something to stumble on. A ghost river. A sentence trailing off toward lower ground. A finger pointing at the rest of the show. I wanted to read it. I wanted to write a poem and call it “Ephemeral Stream” because you made of this imaginary creek a hole so deep it looked like a green eye taking in the storm, a poem interrupted by forgiveness. It’s not over yet. A dream can spend all night fighting off the morning. Let me start again. A stream may be a branch or a beck, a crick or kill or lick, a syke, a runnel. It pours through a corridor. The door is open. The keys are on the dashboard.

A finger pointing at the rest of the show. I wanted to read it. I wanted to write a poem and call it "Ephemeral Stream" and dedicate it to you because you made of this imaginary creek a hole so deep it looked like a green eye taking in the storm, a poem interrupted by forgiveness. It's not over yet. A dream can spend all night fighting off the morning. Let me start again. A stream may be a branch or a beck, a crick or kill or lick, a syke, a runnel. It pours through a corridor. The door is open. The keys are on the dashboard.

Ephemeral Stream [1.2.14]

by Elizabeth Willis This is the way water  thinks about the desert.  The way the thought of water  gives you something  to stumble on. A ghost river.  A sentence trailing off  toward lower ground.  A finger pointing  at the rest of the show.  I wanted to read it.  I wanted to write a poem  and call it "Ephemeral Stream"  and dedicate it to you  because you made of this  imaginary creek  a hole so deep  it looked like a green eye  taking in the storm,  a poem interrupted  by forgiveness.  It's not over yet.  A dream can spend  all night fighting off  the morning. Let me  start again. A stream  may be a branch or a beck,  a crick or kill or lick,  a syke, a runnel. It pours  through a corridor. The door  is open. The keys  are on the dashboard. ____________________ About this poem: "An ephemeral stream flows intermittently or seasonally, leaving a record of water, though there's rarely water flowing in it. You can find them etched in the arid landscapes of the West and Southwest. I learned this term while walking with friends in the hills near Ucross, Wyoming."
