Down the mountain
She drives
As fields await wheat
To arrive.
Down the mountain
She strives
Arrow straight
To a new life.

Echoes Of Before
Photo: Osnat Halperin-Barlev
Who had stepped through this door
Over thresholds
Before?
What words did old timber
Hear
In times gone but still near?
Do dormant secrets
Await
Behind a roped-to-close gate?
If you step close enough to
Go through
Will the past echo to you?

Parched No More
Photo: Ofir Asif
Rare drops join
To overflow
Silt and mud
On the go
Desert lands
Scoured so
A stream bed
Parched no more.
For the Wits End photo challenge: Moving water
Dedicated to the potential for life that desert rains bring … and to the young souls who were lost in a flash flood earlier this year.

Bottle Dance

If you come atop such
Bottled up
Glass
Be sure to not
Pass
Such opportune
Moment
For an impromptu
Dance class.

Big Brother

I will go, Big Brother
To the end of the earth
After you.
In spite of fear
I will try to repeat
All you do.
But I’ll still
Just in case
Reach for
And draw courage
From you.

Dolphin Travel

It is what you call home
Even as you go places
A way to settle in
Anywhere
In small spaces.
Come along
For the ride
Dolphin will be your
Guide.

Night Light

Dancing light on the water
A bright night in the bay
Turning shimmering rainbows
To melted ink on display.

Love is Love

They said they made an odd couple.
They said they shouldn’t hold hands.
They said if they stopped for reason,
They would understand.
They said they weren’t compatible.
They said it will never last.
They said a man with a woman
Clash with too much contrast.
They said it was doomed to fail
And should not be allowed.
But they loved one another,
And love should be proud.

Beginnings

A new shoot
Pushes forth.
A reminder
Of the tenuous
Exuberance
That turning
A new leaf
Holds.

History’s Layers

Layered rock
Cracks and rifts
Blackened hearths
Tribes adrift
Weight of time
Overhead
Stories told
But not dead.
