Pacific Coast Highway, Northern California, United States of America

Where sun and sea and land meet

Where sun and sea and land meet
Where the waves roll in
And break on rocky shores
Under the sun’s illuminating grace

I find the rhythm of being

Caerphilly Castle, Caerphilly, Wales, United Kingdom

A castle shrouded in grey

I have these dreams
Dim and dark
Or are they memories?

Of a battle
And a castle
Shrouded in grey

But
For fires
Raging

And my loved one
There
Life threatened

The Royal Oak, Woburn, England, United Kingdom

On a cold grey day

On a cold grey
Wet dark day
Some places
Invite me

Come inside
It’s warm
And dry
And cozy

Zion National Park, Utah, United States of America

Just as I can barely imagine

To my eye
The wall is solid
To my hand
The rock, impenetrable

To a neutrino
The space between the atoms
Seems like the emptiness
Between the stars

Howe Sound, Sea to Sky Highway, British Columbia, Canada

Azure

Azure the sea
Slate the sky
The Islands
In between

The day was long
Night comes on
To fitful
Sleep go I

Footfalls ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #24

I followed the footfalls
Through grass-laden dunes
Where grey, heavy mist
Permeated the sand

I wondered who’d been here
Where had they gone
From where had they come

I followed the footfalls
Until their abrupt ending

Swallowed up by the sea

Pacific Coast, Oregon, United States of America

Vast Beauty

I don’t need to see very far
Or with much clarity
To know the vastness
Of the ocean

I don’t need to look very deeply
Or with much intimacy
To know the beauty
Of every living being

Pacific Coast, Near Santa Cruz, California, United States of America

Primal

I sit beside the ocean
Wind and water
Salt and rock

Where every thundering wave
Takes me back
Ten thousand years

To a time before industry
To a time before capital
To a time before government
To a time before language
To a time before consciousness
To a time before life

Continue reading Primal

The barest wisp of colour

Even on the grayest days
The barest wisp of colour
Provides beauty enough to

Breathe life into my spirit
Bring warmth into my heart
Displace despair with optimism

Tugboat, Burrard Inlet, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

Caught in an Amber Sea

My camera captures
A tugboat
Held for all time
In a sea of gold

Like the dragonfly caught
In amber
From a time
No words remember

Continue reading Caught in an Amber Sea
