Ancient stone
Not disowned
By old time’s
Marching on.
Newer walls
Chaperone
To contain
Buddha’s throne,
And only the peak’s
Crumbling bones
Tell of years
Now long
Gone.

Gather ’round the rocks
As daylight lingers
Onto land,
And sunlight’s fingers
Tickle children
In windowed shade
And sun.
Gather ’round the City’s park
To frolic
As Spring comes,
And as the promise
Of green growth
Comes closer
Dawn by dawn.
(While today is the Spring Equinox, the photo itself is more promise than reality … for the trees in Central Park are yet to bud and green, but soon they will … and so the photo holds a sight near to be seen …)

For Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Shadows
In a while
There will be all colors
Of the rainbow
And then some
More.
In a while
There will be radiant
Greens and sunny yellows
And all the different
Shades of
Purple
To show.
In a while
The monochrome of winter
Will make way for
Brightly colored
Spring
To make eyes and hearts
Glow.
And the water rushed
From the top
Of the mountain
To the valley below,
Urged by the
Perpetual motion
Of life in
Quenching flow.
For the Wits-End Challenge: Motion
Tilt the world.
Let the ocean,
Pour
Itself
Into your heart
In molten
Light.
For the Wits End Weekly Photo Challenge: Interesting Light
In the depths of the city
Where new rubs shoulders
With old,
Uncounted passes of prayers
And woven statements
Enfold,
Fates and faiths of what’s been
And may yet find
Better ways
To be told.
For Wits-End Weekend Photo Challenge: repeating patterns
Mountains brood
Under skies
Packed with cotton
Piled high
Wrapped in shadows
Near by.
Afternoon
In Chiang Mai.
For the Wits-End Weekly Photo Challenge: Under Cloudy Skies
As you take the journey home,
May there be a light
To guide you.
As you take the journey home,
May all that’s necessary
Be with you.
As you take one step
After another,
May the energies
Sustain you.
And when you finally
Reach home,
May loving arms and hearts
Embrace you.
For Wits End Weekly Photo Challenge: The Journey Home
An angel had been here
But it is here no more.
All it left is an imprint
Of what could be, before.
Will it come back
To see us?
Will it our wishes grant?
Deep in sparkling snow
I don’t know
If it will
If it can’t.
In the soft curl of foam
In the rush of cool waves
She will beach
She will trench
And will lay
Out her hopes
That a future
Will come.
