Blow gently into the embers
Of
Your dreams.
So the quiet flames
Of what you’d always wished
And perhaps did not know how
To do
Can lick them into hope
Anew.

Till time alights
To set things right
May last year’s light
Fill this year’s nights.

She found a spot
Inside herself
That fed the spring
Of peace
She’d always known
Was there.

Make time to write.
A moment. A minute. An hour. A day.
Whatever you can find.
Make it yours.
Have your say.
Morning crept
With cold
Rays,
To frost dress
A new
Day,
With the chill
Soon to
Be,
Preview of
Winter’s
Fee.

Speed of passage
Matched
By change
Of time.
A City moment
Snatched
By yellow
In its
Prime.

Yellowed gold
Touching white
Lighting day
Glinting night.
Perfect fingers
Splayed bold
Last hurrah
Before cold.

They stand together
Fully dressed
Their branches interlaced.
The streetlight hugged between them
Like a child
Held in embrace.
Note: all year long these two trees appear almost indistinguishable. Then comes foliage … and with it a different kind of double take for the glory people see.
For the Lens-Artists Challenge: Seeing double

The gray marble
Supports
With leisured rich
Array
The carved squares
And the luxuriating
Pebbled
Head in
Golden display.
Note: The photo was taken at Wat Pho, The Temple of the Reclining Buddha, in Bangkok, Thailand. The pebbled bits represent a small part of the ‘hair’ of the massive Buddha statue. The textures and contrasts of the surfaces were what caught my eye and so the angle of the photo is deliberately ambiguous.

City brick framing
Glass
Smudged by fingers
And reflections of
Life.
