Six a.m.
Monday morning
I vowed to not look
at my reflection
ever again
easier that way
the little girl
isn't visible
in the mirror
over sensitive
they call her
some people
only see you
as the reaction
you give
to their malice
step away
from the glass

I would be a bird
no doubt in mind
possibly a swift
I didn't read
the small print
in the blue print
when I signed
the dotted line
to be reincarnated
as a human

The gentle reach of hope, doubt may last forever but nature shows otherwise. Life always finds a way. Delicate the mind, heart and soul, as is the blossoming leaf and yet...life always finds a way. Least this is what I say to myself when doom wakes up cradling gloom.

Sunlight paints the petals bright
Flowers dance in the holy light
With blossoms open they face the sky
A silent hymn as moments fly by.

Portrait orientation photograph of a fog-covered oak woodland hillside. A diffuse sun glows softly through dense fog at the top of the frame. Dark, richly detailed oak trees fill the foreground, with ghostly silhouettes of trees dissolving into mist in the middle distance

A small sanderling shorebird in winter plumage stands at the shoreline where wet sand meets calm, rippled water, with its black bill pointed downward as it forages
A sanderling works the shoreline in search of its next meal

It looked like a painting, I said to shadow. Then again, perception is personal, I guess. Where one sees a painting, others shall see a story. Perception is not always everything, said delicate trees.

Old photos
she was me

so many tragedies
broke the lock
the key that replaced
fits albeit jagged

Bathed in moon, drenched by smoke, saturated in rebirth and all the time I looked up to her majestic shimmer, I knew, could feel the reaching.

The ornate Baroque interior of St. Peter's Church in Vienna, Austria, looking down the nave toward the gilded high altar. The vaulted ceiling is adorned with frescoes and gold stucco, flanked by elaborate side altars with gilded sculptures. Natural light streams through windows in the dome above. Several visitors stand in the pews below

A Common Raven perches on the tip of a bare, bleached dead branch against a vivid blue sky, head tilted back and beak wide open mid-call. Its black plumage shows an iridescent sheen in bright sunlight, with throat hackles visibly ruffled

Window views. Not always reflective, not always welcoming and definitely each one, unique. Cobwebs of life trail on us all, don't they?

I've never bothered
with an umbrella
for rain
a downpour
being too delicious
to shade
I have
however
thought of using one
to cloak me from life

A total lunar eclipse photographed against a deep black night sky. The full moon glows in rich shades of deep crimson, burnt orange, and amber โ a classic "blood moon" appearance caused by Earth's shadow. The lunar surface is partially visible through the red hue, showing darker maria regions. Several faint stars are scattered across the surrounding darkness.

During a total lunar eclipse, the Moon doesn't disappear โ it transforms. Bathed in the refracted light of every sunrise and sunset happening simultaneously on Earth, it glows deep red. This is that moment

Skygazing. I spend an unbelievable amount of time looking into clouds as though they are a crystal ball. It's of no matter, they never tell me what I can't sense, anyhow. They do however show me the way to clarity, fragments to hold lest the shards rot away, unnoticed.

Don't have any guilt
wise words with an end
except my world is a-tilt
corners and infinite bends
in salt lamp aura, I wilt
got no time for any guilt
