Hoodoos, Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah, United States of America

Plateau

I dig down
Unpack another layer
I dig down
Unpack another layer

Another
Another
Another

How many layers deep?
I see only the next

Unpack another
See another

Unpack
Another

Until I don’t want
To see anymore
Unpack anymore
Dig anymore

Another Roadside Attraction, Route 66, Mojave Desert, California, United States of America

Inexorable Intent

Necessity creates
Necessity destroys

Intentional purpose
Inexorable decay

Dynamic tension
Eternally entwined

Horseshoe Bend, Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Arizona, United States of America

Bend ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #162

The bends oft
Obscure the end
Yet go
I must
And like the river
Wend
Until the end
Is sure

Girls ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #155

Rage rises

With every
Repetition

“Boys will be boys”
They say

All around
The world

Meaning
Simply

Girls are made
To be had

Morning Light

The morning light
Lazily
Through the mist
Highlights fall
On leading edge
While shadows spread
Beyond the stone
On darkened seas
With riffling waves
Curling round
The citadels
Like cirrus clouds
In gentle skies
Blue on blue
White on white
The sea
The sky
In harmony

Pix to Words ~ Volume I :: Harmony in Word and Form

Pix to Words Magazine ~ Volume I

I promised myself way back in 2015, “I’ll publish a book based on Pix To Words if I reach 500 followers by the end of the year.” I did, but I didn’t, so now I finally am. Motivated to provide something people could take home from my gallery exhibit, Harmony in Word and Form, now showing at Gallery Bistro, and also something to share a bit of the gallery experience with those who can’t possibly make it to the gallery, I present Pix to Words Magazine ~ Volume I. The magazine features most of the photographs, poetry and stories appearing in the gallery exhibit, with a couple additions thrown in.

Harmony in Word and Form

I apologize, everyone, for being AWOL these past few weeks, and for not posting Pic and a Word Challenges. But I do have some exciting news.

All of my creative energy has been directed toward completing preparations to hang a gallery exhibit featuring photographs, stories and poems selected from Pix to Words. Very exciting! And a much larger task than I allowed myself to believe.

Lots of new stuff coming as a result. When things calm down after the opening (perhaps a bit during … stay tuned to the Facebook Pix to Words page if I can manage some live feed from the reception.)

Pic and a Word should return August 26th, the day after the Opening Reception.

Thanks for your patience!

And wish me luck. =)
