The earliest stars
Twinkle under a brazen moon
Keeping the sky
All to itself
Tag: Urban
The Fog
Commuters fill the lanes
On their way into the city
They cannot see
But know too well
It’s there
In the haze
Diminutive towers
Shadows beneath a piercing sun
As they are shadows
Piercing the shroud
Beneath a sky of mottled blue
In the evening rush there will be no misty cover
Crystalline clear; hard-edged architecture
Though the fog lays still upon commuters
Spicy ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #193
A little iced
A little life
Makes everything nice
Eyes ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #192
Eyes and smile
Rendered in night’s
Deepest shadow
A smile to say
“Goodnight, my friend”
Then again to
Welcome morning
In the darkness
Protect the gate
From those who carry
Cans of paint
Wealth From A Golden Land
Standing
In an open land
Amber and azure
Wheat waist high
Scattered clouds
Dot the sky
And I wonder
That I have never stood
In a field of grain
Ripened
Ready for harvest
This golden crop
The wealth which builds cities
Known to urbanites like me
Only as bread
Or an image on a cereal box
Here It Comes
Never
Saw it
Coming
No one
Ever
Does
Atmosphere ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #120
Three times atmosphere
Dominates the scene
Once pollution
Once wildfire
Once winter storms
Twice undesired
Once intended
Often spectacular
Demanding
A different
Perspective
Intimate Strangers
Westbound on my left
Eastbound on my right
Congested endless streams
Faces and life stories
Pedaled by
Captured in moments
Of pixels
Then a camera
Pointed back at me
Capturing a moment
Of a moment being captured
Our cameras lowered
A smile, a laugh, and a wave
We four strangers
In a moment of intimacy shared
Maelstrom ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #96
The maelstrom
Of life
Which is
India
They wait
Emptiness ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #84
Choices made
When I’m taking
Photographs
A moment here
A moment there
Adjusting frame
Awaiting light
Or add a child
Just running through
What once was full
Seems emptiness
Which strikes me now
So much like life
