My mind is ablaze – ideas churning vying for recognition – greed is ego’s bane hogs the spotlight but other thoughts stir gentler, more insightful – will remain in shadow till a quorum empowers artful expression. (This poem is from Twitter @Vjknutson. I’m linking it up with Reena’s Exploration challenge which is the featured image. […]
Dare I confess the hollowness of my heart How emptiness echoes in its chambers How lost I feel inside This is no sanctity no secure refuge my withdrawal is a sham I stand by, observe – circles entwine, embrace – recognize the power of love Practice the words extend warmth and retreat, before connection ignites […]
What will be written in the aftermath – so much owing, so little justification. Upended anxiety – regal anticipations shattered by cancer – yes, life is a teacher No matter, if we survive – but where to go then Earth’s riches exploited Commitments crumbled – confess we have Father issues but it’s time to emerge, […]
Is that your home, VJ? It’s beautiful, looks very welcoming 🙂

Welcome back. Spring is coming. I am counting on that and have been wearing spring jackets to prove it. I loved the photo of roads and waterways. And I also enjoyed the reversing image – travelling through seasons in a novel order.

It is a novel experience, thanks Sarah! Looking forward to watching Spring’s arrival with all its glory.

This is great! I especially love; “Why, why, why, asks the overpass, echoing my own impatience.” This gave me a good tickle inside! 😀

Fascinating post – reversing seasonal progression – at slower-than-wished pace! Think what we’d miss if we could just teleport ourselves from here to there … though I often wish for that option. I really like your two road images, and the Y-Whys. And the Louisiana pic – brings back memories of driving that from Florida (lived there 17 years way back when) to Texas with my school-age son … both of us needing to pee, nowhere to stop! That stretch seemed endless!

That stretch is endless – quite extraordinary. Thanks Jazz. Your turn to come North.

Yes! But probably not through Louisiana…
This year we’ll get as far north as Colorado; 2020 summer plans are for Iowa (a people event) then GreatLakes and into Canada.

It followed us home and then turned cold again – just hovering around the freezing mark now. Won’t last long though.
