Cathedral Grove State Park, Nevada, United States of America

Fault Lines

When I finally turned my gaze
From the world that’s all around me
Turned my eye to look within
And find the source that drives me

It wasn’t long before I found
A crack in my demeanor
A harrowing
Of imperfection
A way in which I’m broken

Highway 120, I think East of Mono Mills California, United States of America

Curves Ahead

Sometimes I think
It would be nice
If there were bold
Bright signs along the path
Warning me
What’s coming up
On the journey
That is life

Curves ahead
Construction
Crosswinds
Historical Marker
Scenic Viewpoint

Brokenness obscuring

Cracked, clouded, darkened
Brokenness obscuring
Images half formed

It’s no wonder
The broken me
Lashed out

Illuminated Darkness

Thoughts rattled around
In my own mind
Seeking a truth
My eyes could not see

Clouded lenses
Light obscured
I close them

Light ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #14

The light may seem dim
And inaccessible
But there is always a path
To take me there

Australian Aboriginal Rock Art, Kakadu National Park, Northern Territory, Australila

Walkabout

I go on walkabout
With my dilly bag
Spear thrower and spears
And a goose feather fan
No more than that
But a song in my heart
The song of my spirit
The song of the land

Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah, United States of America

Realms as beautiful as any I could imagine

Travel brings me
To realms as strange
And exquisite
As divine and beautiful
As any I could imagine
Or read about
Or discover
In the photographs of others
