There are places
I like to go
When the world seems
A little grey
I like to go
When the world seems
A little grey
Places where
I always find
The colour
I’ve been missing

Howe Sound Dusky Blues
Dusk descends
Hard and fast
Like the rain
Hard and fast
Like the rain
Clouds
And mountains
Mingle
In a waning light
The camera records
As a monochrome
Canary, Amber and Orange
Under a sky
So ridiculously
Canary, Amber and Orange
My presence seems
To be the true miracle
So ridiculously
Canary, Amber and Orange
My presence seems
To be the true miracle
How is it possible
There is such glory
In this universe
And how improbable is it
That I am its witness?
Dusk Settles In
Dusk settles in
Light waning in the sky
Slate blue clouds
Weave between the peaks
Howe Sound calm, serene
Light waning in the sky
Slate blue clouds
Weave between the peaks
Howe Sound calm, serene
The world settles into an armchair
At the end of a long day
Breathes a sigh
Takes a long draw from the wineglass
And lets the worries drift away
The seasons of my being
When disconnected from my body
I experience the world through my mind
And my everyday senses
As if all there is can be
I experience the world through my mind
And my everyday senses
As if all there is can be
Touched
Heard
Smelled
Tasted
Seen
Reasoned
I am out of time
With the world
Out of rhythm
With the seasons of my being
From Earth and Sky
Hot sun and hot water
Cascading down
One revealing
One creating
Terraces of minerals
Cascading down
One revealing
One creating
Terraces of minerals
One from Earth
One from Sky
Immensity and Grace
As the last rays
Of a waning sun
Dwindle
Of a waning sun
Dwindle
I notice a speck
On the river
A boat
The immensity
Strikes me
Humbling
Precipice ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #21
I cannot will my body
To stand at the edge
The red precipice
Must be 2,000 feet high
To stand at the edge
The red precipice
Must be 2,000 feet high
I crouch down
Inch forward
Lie flat
Wiggle further
And as I near the very edge
A chalk covered hand
Comes over the top
Taking a firm grip
High Vantage
Even the benefit of high vantage
May not reveal the road ahead
May not reveal the road ahead
I travel the path before me
Accepting the unknown
In the context of humanity
I try to keep people in the frame
When exploring esoteric thoughts
On the nature of reality
The expansiveness of existence
When exploring esoteric thoughts
On the nature of reality
The expansiveness of existence
Grace, beauty, the sense of the divine
Whether or not these qualities exist in the world
In the objects I observe
Or are a construction of my consciousness
I share the experience of them
With every other human being
