Tourists, Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes, Death Valley National Park, California, United States of America

Tourists ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #217

Yea, though I walk
Through this valley of death
I will fear no hardship
Among these many tourists with me
While the road and the cafe comfort me
No shadow falls to Earth
But footfalls

Departure Bay, BC Ferries, Nanaimo, Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada

Magic Carpet Ride

A gateway
A bridge
A portal
To adventure

Gawd
I love
A ferry

The magic carpet
Of roadtrips

Impending Rockies, Bow Valley Trail, Alberta, Canada

The Rockies

They rise
Like a Wall
The Rockies

Towering
Above the land
Which for a thousand miles
Has known only sky
And a horizon
Beyond infinity

We enter here
By the millions
Entranced

Highway 87, Arizona, United States of America

Movement

I travel
Because
Standing still
Is death

An endless road, Highway 87, Somewhere between Round Top and Winslow, Arizona, United States of America

Miles of Earth

I have driven
Many miles of Earth
Across continents
And countries

And where others see
Monotony
Or mundanity

I discover
Exquisite

Subtlety

Navajo Sandstone Domes, Capitol Reef National Park, Utah, United States of America

Where Am I Going!

Sometimes I wonder
Where am I going
Where is this road taking me
How am I going to get past this

I stop
Reconnoitre
Check the maps
Consider my options

Except for some times

Poetry by Patrick JenningsOct 19, 20164:48 pm

One mile at a time

Anchored to my desk
And the responsibilities required
To live another 10,000 days

I long for the road
And its gift of living
One mile at a time
