Brown

Brown is autumn flavoured –
sun-scorched bullrushes
and dried milk pods –
gravies stirring
in roasting pans,
the colour of my mood –
earthen and ready
for Winter’s sojourn.

For Nancy Merrill’s A Photo a Week Challenge: brown.

    Will be bysy for a week or more going thru pics to choose the keepers – did not bring laptop along – hence getting lots of sleep (likely sparse once home to my “photo lab”)

Cryptic

Is the writing on the wall so cryptic?Graphic images depict rageflames of dissonanceyoung men bleeding at their own handscompassion incapacitated. A sad awakening for a society fixatedon rights and privileges, dominating culture excluding the nurtureof humanity, or preservation of life. How can we continue to closet our children’s pain – their vitality oozing – hopelessly […]

Needing a Sign

Restlessness accompanies meon this sojourn today –unfazed by ripe redbelly of robin,or shimmering emeraldof breeding merganser’s crown. My lens seeks out decay –rotting wood, darkened cavities,as if my soul craves reassurancethat life persists even where deathhovers – I need a sign Discontent, I move on-drive the river roadsnail’s pace – praying forsomething to shakethis malaise […]

Peace is Present

Infernal trek!Wasted, mindless daysthese chains of self-reproach Will I never reachyearned for peace? Carry this burdeninto the wind,feet shufflingeyes skyward Stalwart treesobserve my passage,birds offer accompaniment,sun’s warmth charms Nature intervenes –peace is present. (My image)
