Love ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #347
They call this “golden hour”
But every hour spent with you
Is golden
Perfect Light
Every now and again
Nature conspires with time
To create moments
Of utter perfection
While I am graced
With permission
Not only to witness
But record
Sons and Daughters
Time Will Tell
Returns to harbour
Laden with lobster
Two sons waiting
On the jetty
The younger runs out to greet
“Hi dad!”
Four Daughters
Already out to sea
On her second run
One daughter aboard
Pulling traps from the bottom
Pulling lobsters from traps
Proud dad
Kingly Slumber
Emptied fruit crates
For a mattress
Battered and broken stool
For a pillow
A bed unfit
For the delicate senses
And sensibilities
Of a princess
Ah
But for a king?
Ample slumber
In deepest repose
Missed Opportunity ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #339
Click a pic
From a speeding taxi
Crossing Jakarta
Months later
While editing
Curiosity piqued
Google “KETOPRAK”
Now I wish we’d stopped
And tried one
A journey
Once begun
Never ends
Overlapping
Those that follow
With belated discovery
But no regrets
For just another
Missed opportunity
Wonder in the Little Things
In the midst
Of expansive glory
She finds wonder
In the smallest
Little things
It is that smallest
Little thing
About her
I love
Most
Friendship ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #332
Celebrate the joy
Shared with friends
On an adventure
Making a meal
Out of life
Serendipity Captured
She ran through the frame
Dressed in all the right bright colours
A child’s exuberance
Equal to the vibrance
Of the setting
Click click click
Went the shutter
All good
But one click
Is perfect
Ephemeral moment
Eternally captured
Surf Song
With gentle insistence
The ocean rises up to greet me
And I, pant legs rolled to my calves
Welcome it’s cool, frothy embrace
Enjoy the caress of water over my ankles
The sensation of sinking into the sand
As the receding wave draws the beach
From beneath my feet
I stay there for an hour or so
Take a few steps back
When the waves threaten my trousers
A few steps forward
When they fail to reach me
My sandpiper dance
In time with the surf song
And its choir of gulls
