Detail, Fujifilm X-T2, Poetry

Some Mad Portal

Some Mad Portal, Clouds, Port Moody, British Columbia, Canada
No matter how dark the path
No matter how obscured
How many obstacles

Some mad portal
Always seems to appear
And I find my way

My failures seem always
To be failures of perseverance
When I turn away from the path

Clouds
Port Moody
British Columbia, Canada, 2018

      <grin> I’ve gotta grin, given how apropos this is to the last couple of weeks working through preparations for a gallery exhibit. Just stick with it… keep plugging away. It’s amazing how often doors will just open. 🙂

    Darkness lead to light. Is this in consonance with what you say here?

      I’d have to say the clouds got me going there. =)
