A Passenger’s View

I reconcile this passenger imposed life
through a photographer’s lens

Record the road ahead, the passages
find resonance in what lies outside my window.

Love how the trees seem to form an arch in the last window view. ❤ I'd love to be the passenger instead of always the driver. It's all in the eye's of the beholder.

    So true. There are advantages to being in the passenger seat. My daughter says to me, “Did you see that!” I reply, “No, I’m concentrating on driving.”

These are beautiful car window views. The narrow, long road is my favorite! 🙂

A Question by Robert Frost

“A voice said, Look me in the starsAnd tell me truly, men of earth,If all the soul-and-body scarsWere not too much to pay for birth.” Effort, it seems to me, is what makes gain so sweet. Moving has stretched us beyond what we thought we were capable of, but never have we doubted our purpose. […]

Friends and family unpacked while I slept my way through feverish chills and sweats and all the other fun things that come with this bug. Yesterday, I regained a sense of normalcy, and could finally focus on my new surroundings. Of […]
