It seems as though you are still summer:
The leaves still green atop your trees
Waves still warm inside your eyes
Sunrise haze in your sky
Sunset late to bed
As sleep lights in
Your soft breath
Upon
Mine.

Soft ripples spread
Like ribbons of
Silk
As morning heads
Toward shimmering
Heat.
Note: The photo was taken in Ko Samui, Thailand, on an August morning. It was sublime.

She leaned against the painted wall and exhaled a sigh of relief.
She was finally home. Hardship over. She was free. All was going to be as she needed it to be.
The freshly laundered whites fluttered in the sea breeze and the rush of waves sang in her ears. A dun puppy yipped at a bird. The baby slept at her feet.
“Have you eaten?” Grandmama called, a loving voice on the wind.
“I’m coming,” she smiled and bent to lift the bassinet.

Walk this way
To the water
Where the goats
Cleared a path.
Walk this way
Where the feet
Of the ancients
Have passed.
Walk this way
Little brother
I will give you
My hand.
Walk this way
And together
Our adventures
Expand.
For Cee’s Which Way Photo Challenge
Let your mind weigh anchor.
Oblige your soul to sail.
Release the mooring of your thoughts.
Set your heart free.
Let your spirit
Cruise
Adrift.
