Little dots of existence
Racking up time and substance
From pointillistic nothings

Speed ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #138
Odes to a different time
Built for speed
Lived at a Main Street pace
The paradox
Of a mechanical world
As seen from this virtual realm
Because here am I
Everywhere at once
Yet nowhere at all
Unlikely Hues
I linger in deepening darkness
Counting out time
In fives by five
Counting out time
In fives by five
Collecting virtual waves
Of indigo and azure
Lavender and cobalt
Refracted and reflected
By atmosphere and cloud
And a near-flat sea
Magic time and light
Conjures from the darkness
Invokes unlikely hues
With the flourish of a shutter
Reveals to all the world
And me
Slumber ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #136
As the snow fell, he slept
And it became
The slumber of aeons
And it became
The slumber of aeons
His awakening would be
Celebrated around the world
Though his eyes never opened again
Times I Never Lived
I like to reminisce
About
Times I never lived
About
Times I never lived
They seem to be much
Grander
Than the times I’m living now
I create them like
A dream
All lofty and sublime
Believing there’s
A truth
To the beauty of the lie
Time ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #131
Walk/don’t walk
Stop/maybe don’t stop
Make up my mind
Wavering on this indecision
Irresolute at the crossroads
Considering east and west
North and south
All avenues open
None being taken
With nowhere to go
And all day to get there
I am not going
Anywhere
Stop/maybe don’t stop
Make up my mind
Wavering on this indecision
Irresolute at the crossroads
Considering east and west
North and south
All avenues open
None being taken
With nowhere to go
And all day to get there
I am not going
Anywhere
Moments ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #130
There is a moment
A moment before
A moment after
A moment before
A moment after
Each with their own tenor
Their own flavour
Their own meaning
There is the overall
The changing times
The recollected meaning
Of a moment
Made up of moments
All part of another
Moment
Moon & Shadow
In the warmth of a summer night
We picnic on the pier
A gathering of family and friends
Me, set apart, just pondering
We picnic on the pier
A gathering of family and friends
Me, set apart, just pondering
We are all just shadows
In the moonlight
Beneath a darkening sky
Of stars and cloud
All in motion, even I
In this moment fixed in time
Which has no memory
Or destiny
Frozen ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #128
Sometimes
The ripples of change
Become frozen
Caught in time
Like the waves
Lapping up on the fringe
Of a freezing lake
The ripples of change
Become frozen
Caught in time
Like the waves
Lapping up on the fringe
Of a freezing lake
And I am the ship
Caught in arctic ice
Waiting out the season
Hoping for the sea to open
