Life & Death & Stone, Kata Tjuta (The Oglas), Northern Territory, Australila

Longevity ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #31

In a duel of longevity
Between stone and the living
I would never bet
On life not winning

Though life seems so
Ephemeral
While stone seems so
Well, eternal

Dusk, Bowyer Island, Howe Sound, From Horseshoe Bay, Sea to Sky Highway, British Columbia, Canada

This world

This world
Of dusky blues
And blackened greens

This world
In which
Imagination sings

This world
Appears to me
In dreams

Tantalus Mountain Range, Near Squamish, British Columbai, Canda

Cold Blue Sky

From a cold blue sky
Falls a star-like sun
Into puffy clouds
Blanket sharp-ridged peaks

With the day near done
Laying back, warm sun
Close my weary eyes
Breathe a heavy sigh

State Highway 95, West of Blanding, Utah, United States of America

On Leaving the Valley

Driving along the valley floor
Mountains and ridges rising above
So beautiful

Still, I always wonder
What’s on the other side?
What is the next valley like?

The Mereenie Loop, Near Gosses Bluff, Northern Territory, Australia

Into Unknown Worlds

The land rolls
Like waves across the sea
Like the grasses
In staccato breeze

And there go we
Like sailors
Over the rolling land
Into unknown worlds

Hoodoos, Goblin Valley State Park, Green River, Utah, United States of America

The Goblins’l Getcha

The Goblin phalanx
Swarmed the battlements
Filling the moat
With their bodies
Clambering over
The unbreachable wall
Each one a writhing ladder rung
For others to climb

Goblin Valley State Park, Green River, Utah, United States of America

Alien Places

It is in the alien places
Where I learn the most
About myself
About perspective

The place itself
Knows not
What it is

Gentle Brook, Yosemite National Park, California, United States of America

Gentle Time

Set beside the gentle brook
Which cut the mountains high above
Now settled under gentle light
I wonder at the water’s might

O’er gentle time
In nature’s flow
The lightest rain
Must downward go

Light in the Trees, Over Lynne Manor, Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada

I will follow you

If you
Lead me
To the light

I will
Follow you
