A rocky castle in the sky
The waters
A cold
Aqua fuzz
And stony shark fins
In disguise.
A masterpiece
Sculpted by ice.

Barefoot princess
Green-ribboned prince
What tales you tell
In words
In hopes
In quiet dreams?

Ah, the sweet potential
Waiting
For tomorrow
Morning’s toast. …

For all the little ones in my life: Right here, nearby, quite far; right now or not but in my heart you always are … For all of you who chase life (and sometimes Central Park pigeons), and grab hold of every moment’s possibility with two tenacious hands:
You teach me lots more than I ever could teach you.
You are each life, exemplified.

In the arms of a sister
Gentle hugs
Soft sang songs
Whispered small things of lovely
A beloved
Belongs.

In the silence of pre-dawn
Or the hush before the sunset
May your soul be soothed to know
Full widths of hope
Soft waves of deepest palette.

The stories told
By weathered walls
Still standing tall
After the fall
So like the lives of residents
Of old
Untold
Still hold.

In the weathered rock
Old hands of time still tick away the measured strokes
Of chisels
Embedding prayers
And faith
Into the stone.
Aged but clear
The corner breathes centuries
Of memory and hope
Of light and lore
And much too much
War.

Undo mud
Into light
Unfurl rain
Straight green up
Petals forth
Hope transforms.

As soon as I saw this week’s photo challenge, I knew what goes in it! (Thank you to my nephew, Amitai Asif, for this fab photo!)
I love the complex simplicity of this hiker’s approach to helping clean up the paths he walks on: String together necklaces of bottle caps, find trash, screw trash to empty top, continue on. Leave the world a better place than you had found it.
Reuse.
Refresh.
Reclaim.
Lead by example.
Be the solution.
Be the change you want to see.
Amen.
