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

Weekends

Sail the slate sea
On friendly breeze
Which powers me

Hold the tiller fast
As grey gulls surf
The unseen wave
Leeward of the mast

And I at peace
In my dead reckoning
Far between the harbours
Of duty and burden
Riding the tide of release

Empty Time and Space, Howe Sound, Sea to Sky Highway, British Columbia, Canada

Unfilled

Time and space
Seem empty
Without your

Presence

Beneath a Virtual Moon, Howe Sound, Sea to Sky Highway, British Columbia, Canada

Androgyny Domine

Under androgynous sky
Sun or moon
Father or mother

The camera never lies
But the photographer
Knows how to fib

Pinnacle Obscura

There is a path
To distant peak
Though peak itself
Remains obscure

And should I find
A mountaintop
Who’s to say
I find the one

Reserved to some
Refused to those
Who’ve never known
The pinnacle

Grunge

On every beauty find redress
The film of some small discontent
Such that those who can’t possess
May pose desire circumvent

But I this beauty’s grunge perceive
Projection of my ego’s fear
So let such love that cannot be
Reveal my weakness to be clear

Heron & Crows Beneath the Layers, Britannia Beach, Howe Sound, Sea to Sky Highway, British Columbia, Canada

Disturbing Beauty

Many layers deep
The serrated edge cuts
Through the camouflage of bullshit

Reveals a jagged truth
Painful and disturbing
Integrity’s challenge

Never are we more beautiful
Than when we conquer
The falsehoods of our fears

Winter Crisp, Britannia Beach, Howe Sound, Sea to Sky Highway, British Columbia, Canada

Winter Capture

Wind and whitecaps swish about
Sounds as crisp as winter air
My near frostbitten ears select
Imagine gentle warmth
In sunlight’s amber hue detect

I linger here
Instead the heated hearth of home
Frigid fingers upon my camera work
Until chill moment captured thus
By an eye that cannot shirk

Pastel Twilight

Day passes into pastel twilight
Atmospheric soothing sigh
Let the night come
Sonorous repose
Eyes closed
Sleepy
Sleep

Take Flight

Ignited by an
Inner glow I take flight and
Rise free from his hand

Christie Islet Bird Sanctuary, Howe Sound, Sea to Sky Highway, British Columbia, Canada

Islands ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #196

With the glooming of the day
A subtle sunset failing to find glory
This small slip of Islet
Sits waiting for its siren
In the Sound of gentle sussurrus
While I am tempted by a call
As yet unvoiced by temptress song
