I am a being of the night
My energy rises when
Illuminated
By moonlight
And starshine
My energy rises when
Illuminated
By moonlight
And starshine
Tag: time
A beach without umbrellas
There are thousands of miles of beach
Where no parasols are erected
To shade blankets
Coolers
And the sunburned
Where no parasols are erected
To shade blankets
Coolers
And the sunburned
White washed
I want to be washed pure
The way a rocky shoreline
Chases all the blue from the ocean
Leaving a roiling, effervescent whiteness
The way a rocky shoreline
Chases all the blue from the ocean
Leaving a roiling, effervescent whiteness
Nature’s Art
Time plays out
On compressed
And shattered
Chasm wall
On compressed
And shattered
Chasm wall
Mineral
Patina
Like coffee
And tea stains
We live on the edge of a moving precipice
I love the chutzpah of communities
Which plunk themselves down on the edge of a continent
That the sea has been ferociously taking back
Since the land was born
A geological child
I think of this canyon
As old
Until I reflect
And recall
As old
Until I reflect
And recall
The sandstone
Began to rise
Some 200 million
Years ago
Leaving the water to carve
An infant, a toddler
The geological child
Of a mother, Earth, 4 billion years old
Rocking Time
There are places on this earth
Where time is the answer
To every question
Where time is the answer
To every question
Time, and Nature
In harmony
Revealing the world beneath
Some ascribe great powers to time:
To heal
To create
To destroy
To heal
To create
To destroy
But time itself wields no might
But for agents of change
Like the workings of nature and her creatures
Ripples in Time
A couple hundred million years ago
The tide receded for the last time
Leaving ripples in the sand
The tide receded for the last time
Leaving ripples in the sand
To the rock, it seems just yesterday
It had been the sand
Gently rolling with the waves
Primordial Sun
There’s something primordial
About an amber sun
Settling in over a sea
Foaming against a rocky shore
About an amber sun
Settling in over a sea
Foaming against a rocky shore
As if you are there, at the dawn of life
Watching nature stir her organics
Casting upon them the spells
Which will make matter sentient
