rocky mountain peaks, maligne valley, jasper national park, alberta, canada

Implacable

It is the hard
Which asks me
To be soft

The unyielding
Asks me
To yield

So I become the cloud
Pass over the peaks
Flow through the valley
I align with the supple forces
Which overcome the implacable

Blanket ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #170

On a crisp chill morn’
Paradox so comforting
Fresh blanket of snow

Winter Rangeland, Highway 87, Somewhere between WInslow and Phoenix, Arizona, United States of America

Move along

It’s time to set
The wheels in motion
Time to move along
Not so much
To just be rolling
Much more to have
Intent

No need for
Destination
No need
To have a plan
Not yet

But scan
Horizons
For potential
For places I’d like
To get

blue hour, howe sound, from sea to sky highway, british columbia, canada

Wheeling Through Space and Time

Planets in the sky
Stars along the shore
Flickering
And I
A constellation
A God
Wheeling through space
And time
Across the eternal
Infinite

broken starburst, bow river, bow river parkway, banff national park, alberta, canada

To View or be Present

In the sky
A convulsion of light
While below
The Bow
Winds its way
Down the valley floor
With the forest
Standing sentry

And I
Delight in the roar
Of rushing water
Coursing over stone
For a moment
At least
As content
To view the scene
As to be in it

Falling

I tumble
Into an unknown
Wrapped within
A cacophony
Of confusion

Resist
And be dashed against
The rocks

Let go
Allow the chaos
To coalesce

I rejoin
Resolving flow
Into the known

apache gap and four peaks, tonto national forest, near mesa, arizona, united states of america

To Climb into the Light

Deep in the shadows
Through the gap
Where the main road flows
I catch flashes
Of the golden hour above
So pull aside
And clamber up
Into the light
Where a breath-taking world
Awaits
