Awakening in darkness
I seek the light
I seek the light
Though the intensity
Brings initial pain
Vision soon resolves
Restoring clarity

Grey on Grey
Grey on grey on grey on grey
Even under leaden sky
There is some magic yet
When lone gull wings
On rippling breeze
Grace in its poise
Careless of thought
Satisfied in arc
And swoop of flight
Which lifts me too
From baleful earth
Between the greys
Of clouds and sea
The Line of Her Departure
The sun skips off the ocean
As if patinaed brass
As if patinaed brass
Sun ring complementing
The line of her departure
In retreat she makes
Some small rippling wake
Much like the sun
As it dips below horizon
The world left behind
Settles into darkness
Islands That Am I
This Island
That am I
Clouds and currents
Rushing by
That am I
Clouds and currents
Rushing by
Isolated
No ferry stops
No bridge to cross
Too cold to swim
So stranded here
In my beliefs
While rowboats rock
Tied up to dock
Stormy Horizon
There’s a storm
Just this side
Of the horizon
Just this side
Of the horizon
It’s lingered there
As long as I remember
While the horizon calls to me
Cozy ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #116
Exposed
Out on the rocks
Ocean breaking at my feet
Along a shoreline
So battered over time
Even were the air at rest
It would seem storm buffeted
Out on the rocks
Ocean breaking at my feet
Along a shoreline
So battered over time
Even were the air at rest
It would seem storm buffeted
But there
The resort so close
I nearly feel the warmth
Of the golden window light
The frontage seems
To brace against the weather
Like I sometimes do in a storm
Arms outstretched
Head on into the rippling wind
Magic Carpet Ride
A gateway
A bridge
A portal
To adventure
A bridge
A portal
To adventure

I love
A ferry
The magic carpet
Of roadtrips
Seeking Serenity in Turmoil
In turmoil
I seek serenity
Not by blocking out
I seek serenity
Not by blocking out
The noise
The chaos
The violence
But by finding within these
The song
The rhythm
The transformation
Therein I discover
The beauty in all things
Therein awaits
Serenity
Therein am I
Transformed
The Wild Places
The wild places
Remind me
My presence here
Is a gift of technology
Remind me
My presence here
Is a gift of technology
Electricity and engines
Polymers and composites
Production lines and factories
I could not make
A single thing I’ve brought
Savouring Discovery
In the serenity
Of a quiet fall day
I savour the colours
Of transformaton
Of a quiet fall day
I savour the colours
Of transformaton
In the emptiness
Of my quiet mind
I discover the contours
Of being
