Tranquil

a tranquil night sky

is now being stalked by lightning –

poking its wild side

Not so Wordless Wednesday!

A still life. This was from my garden in April, 2020. A Chinese lantern plant that had come through that winter with a new look.

This is what it looked like before falling into the arms of winter.

A good day to all!

Soaring

I don’t remember whether these were pigeons, crows or seagulls. The skies around here seem to nurture them all!

soaring

in the arms of winter –

earthly cares on hold

Holding Fast

this garden

once ablaze in color

finally dressed for fall

now stands stark naked

suffering the ravages of winter

holding fast

Change

This Holly Plant lives just outside my door.

A season in turmoil. The circle gets smaller. Loved ones pass on leaving us behind to sort out the ravages of being. Such loss is soothed only by a long spring. But wounds remain so, as we find a way to live with them.

we are left standing

as december roars on through

this season of life

a little more worn, rumpled

but for this, we are grateful

Change

under blue gray skies

as twilight takes its leave

and day tumbles into night

a crow flies across a sliver of a moon –

I am lost in thoughts of you…

and our moon gazing nights

Snowy Morning

Taken yesterday morning at the pier. Mine were the only foot prints in the snow.
