Arid
When the air extracts the moisture
From my sinuses
From my mouth
From my lungs

Fearless
Fearless
I would fail less
Or more
I would fail less
Or more
I would never fail
For fear of trying
I would fail
For reaching further
Than I could grasp
Flow ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #17
Bleeding Earth
Heat and minerals
Colour flows
Leaving trails
Heat and minerals
Colour flows
Leaving trails
I flow through lives
Passion and presence
Broken love
Leaving trails
Fire
One day in practice
Mind quiet
Body still
I sensed a flame
Burning deep within
Mind quiet
Body still
I sensed a flame
Burning deep within
As I turned
My mind to it
It rose
And rose again
Into a mighty fire
Startled
I turned away
Tamped it down
Put it away
Returning to my quiet
Reflections
Reflections form a perfect circle
Bringing the past into the present
And the present into the past
I create a history I prefer
Reforming memories I prefer
To remember
Inexplicable Appeal
Some works of art
Have an inexplicable appeal
Have an inexplicable appeal
Nostalgia
Mixed with quirkiness
Leavened by wit
And insight
Fast Food and Fate
I am certain
No one knew
The fate which had been wrought
When the first arches were erected
No one knew
The fate which had been wrought
When the first arches were erected
Or was it rather
A prophecy?
Erosion ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #15
The intermittent rain comes down
Over millions of years, seems steady
Washing away
Uncovering
Leaving spires and hoodoos
Revealing forms underlying
Over millions of years, seems steady
Washing away
Uncovering
Leaving spires and hoodoos
Revealing forms underlying
A land to be traversed
Steel, stone and sand
A land where no one
And no thing
Lingers long
A land to be
Traversed
A land where no one
And no thing
Lingers long
A land to be
Traversed
