What a surreal day
He thought as he sought a much
More beautiful thought

The Promise
There is a promise in the road
Not the destination
Every place I may want to go
Is a waypoint
On the way to another place
Neither the journey
What is to be gained
From moving
For the sake of movement
But once the wheels
Begin to roll
Changes begin
The promise manifests
What I see; How I think; Who I am
Future ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #260
Hither I leave
This valley of death
And I will fear no future
This valley of death
And I will fear no future
For I bear not the past
Carry only hope, and my staff
Tenacity
Diminished
Your light has dimmed
Become a moon
Which once was sun
In brighter skies
Become a moon
Which once was sun
In brighter skies
And in your eyes
I see you know
Feel the shadow
Across your soul
Confused you are
By your confusion
Where once you knew
Some clarity
As time and mind
Slip from you
So too do you
Slip from me
Morning’s Welcome
The sun crests the sea
And in the light I see
The beacon stayed true
To guide us through
The darkling pass
And in the light I see
The beacon stayed true
To guide us through
The darkling pass
We navigated
The long night
To morning’s welcome
This new shore
Beckoning
A Nearby Star
Perched on a mossy cliffside
Basking in the warmth
Of a nearby star
Basking in the warmth
Of a nearby star
The scents of sea
And conifers
Carried on the breeze
While I
Close my eyes
Breathe in
All of existence
Gathered in a moment
Curvature of the Earth
I remind myself
That this Earth
Is but a small globe
That this Earth
Is but a small globe
Spinning and spinning
In infinite space
And I no more than a mote
A sprinkling of star dust
Coalesced in flesh and bone
Which one day woke up
Asking questions about
The universe and itself
Is there more than that?
I may never know
Perhaps I simply forgot
Hope ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #259
I remember a day
When our star burned
Bright and hot
In the cold, crisp air
When our star burned
Bright and hot
In the cold, crisp air
Delightful frolics
When the clouds softened
Saw blade peaks
Rather than coat the sky
In remorseful grey
Like Today
I remember a better day
And another to come
A future memory known not by
Prescience nor forecast
Only, hope
Patience and Peace
I remind myself
Time and water
Carved this canyon
From solid rock
Time and water
Carved this canyon
From solid rock
Though patience
And softness
Cannot resolve
Every problem
The peace flowing
From their practice
Bears a reward
Of its own
As I watch
The sun set
Upon the stone
The river cut
Endurance & Tenacity
With endurance and
Tenacity we survived
Year 2020
Tenacity we survived
Year 2020
