Layers deep
To promising light
From a ledge of darkness
Valleys and passes
Stand between
Despair and possibility

Steps ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #165
Sometimes the light
Seems very far
And the way
So dark and perilous
And the path
Occluded mystery
Seems very far
And the way
So dark and perilous
And the path
Occluded mystery
I remind myself
Just take a step
I remember
Where every journey begins
I find my courage
In the many paths already taken
I’ve held the light
before
I’ve made my way
before
I’ve found the path
before
I will hold the light
again
Simplest Lines
I love to find
The simplest lines
In the complexity
Of nature
The simplest lines
In the complexity
Of nature
Though so reduced
In form I find
Her beauty
Undiminished
Pretty Things
A little bit of string
Round and round
The weathered trunk
Such a pretty thing
Round and round
The weathered trunk
Such a pretty thing
I don’t know why it’s there
Not that I really care
It’s warm
There’s sun
That little bit of string
Is just the perfect thing
Pics or it didn’t happen
Pics or it didn’t happen
But I was so busy
But I was so busy
Photographing
Instagramming
Facebooking
Snapchatting
Wordpressing
Tweeting
It happened
But I wasn’t there
Beautiful Presence
I am never more beautiful
In countenance
In presence
In spirit
In countenance
In presence
In spirit
Than when my mind is quiet
Connected to all things
At peace with myself
And the moment, just as it is
Called
The road goes on ahead
Down, down, down
Into the smokey valley
Down, down, down
Into the smokey valley
But I would stay here
Above the floor
Above the fray
In the unfettered sun
Where the mountain breeze
Clears the air, so pure
If not for the call
And the necessity
For the work
Daybreak
Gently
I enter the day
Warming slowly
To the light
The birdsong
The clackety rumbling
Of footfalls and engines
Outside the window
As existence draws me back
Into being
I enter the day
Warming slowly
To the light
The birdsong
The clackety rumbling
Of footfalls and engines
Outside the window
As existence draws me back
Into being
Though, really
I could do with a few more hours
Of non-being
Little Buddha Selfie
The countenance of a buddha
The presence for a selfie
The presentation for an FB world
The presence for a selfie
The presentation for an FB world
Current ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #97
With

Bypass
Against

Bypass
All the ways I’ve learned
To make my way in life
Unconsciously, they become habit
Forgetting the current running through it all
I remind myself
Stand on the shore
Breathe in the quiet
Observe the current
