I have heard
The ocean’s sigh
And witnessed
Ripples on its shores
The shushing waves
Left in repose
The ocean’s sigh
And witnessed
Ripples on its shores
The shushing waves
Left in repose
Hoodoo Sentinel
I have weathered aeons
Storms and
The gentlest breath of air
Stripped me down
To barest essence
Through all that
Have I watched
The comings and goings
Of the living
A million parallel universes
In 1996, standing atop Coit’s Tower, I scanned the city’s skyline, thinking about nearly a million souls living there, working, playing, getting over a cold, making love, fighting, watching Gilligan’s Island re-runs, having pizza and beer with friends, perhaps even taking photos of Coit’s Tower.
Dream on, on to the heart of the sunrise…
Love comes to you and you follow
Lose one on to the Heart of the Sunrise
SHARP — DISTANCE
How can the wind with its arms all around me
Leap of Faith
There is a place in Zion National Park. Angel’s Landing awaits you at the peak of a narrow band of rock thousands of feet tall. As exasperatingly beautiful as the view is, the hike … the hike is neither for the faint of heart, nor the squeamish of heights.
Sentinels
The stout white sentinel
Stood watch in the valley
A phalanx of clouds advancing
Ahead of the coming storm
Stood watch in the valley
A phalanx of clouds advancing
Ahead of the coming storm
“Don’t worry”
Said the stubby, tenacious conifer
“I’ve got your six”
His platoon murmuring support
Window and Wall
You throw yourself at life
With abandon
Maybe you hit the wall
Again and again
Leaving a bit of yourself behind
Every time
With abandon
Maybe you hit the wall
Again and again
Leaving a bit of yourself behind
Every time
But every time
You notice the window
The open space beyond it
The hopeful road
Leading somewhere promising
Vanishing point
I try to look too far
Ahead and behind
Seeking insight
Which is strongest
Farthest reaching
At the point on which
I stand
In the moment
I stand there
Ahead and behind
Seeking insight
Which is strongest
Farthest reaching
At the point on which
I stand
In the moment
I stand there
Sharp Left
There are times in life
When a sudden change in direction
Is strongly indicated
When a sudden change in direction
Is strongly indicated
