It was a dream
Where
Many voices I heard
Speaking all at once
Some louder than
Others

Some just
A frightening
Whisper

I opened my eyes
And I found
Myself walking
With
The dead

Where
Blinding light
As morning
Became
Shades of green

And those
Shades
Held the moment
I screamed

reminded of a time, and a weird situation that abruptly cut a waltz short...and not because the clock struck midnight.

began laughing and....anyone ever get a tic tac stuck up in your nasopharynx...? fun times, lol...

thoughts, swept away—

in a waterfall's thundering verve
a cauldron of swirling froth

i inhale, pausing
reflect on the tranquil currents

meandering around rocks
settling in a tranquil sun-dappled pool

distillation of experiences,
we know the work, the art of stillness

silver breath rising —

10/10 morning walk- a shaded waterfall settling in tranquil pool of dappled light

"autumn is love poetry, each leaf a lyrical heartbeat"

I hope you're all feeling the pulse of autumn. May your weekend be filled with good vibes and happy moments
🍂🍁🕊️✨

10/9 green leaves in the process of changing to autumns colors... red, yellow and orange

Stirring shores coves
Sands briney ripples
Magnetic reflections
As the planets vastness
Shrinks in invanentness
Of countless Milky Ways
We microscopic slides
Under carvings waves
Reflections of ions
Of nature's touches

Pacific Ocean's Trails
🌊🌊🌊💙💚🌿🌿🌿

honestly, it’s research
smelling beignets

crumbs tempt the edges of will
i inch closer still ∴

Stay close tonight.
The air smells of jasmine
and rain,

and your voice moves through me
like a quiet thought
I can’t shake.

You touch me, and the world
slows, the kind of stillness
that hums..

Your shadow stayed upon
my quiet mouth,

your name keeps burning,
flooding through my veins.

Each leaf the wind lets
fall still speaks you out,

still wakes the heat,
the sweetness

something we both can watch at night
and get hit by
but in the meantime
you are only one musky constellation away

I often dream
of spaces where
I wander, room to
room -

It's where I process;
where I haunt, revisit
conflict's ghosts.

In fact, I'll have you
know, there was once
one in mind for you -

a space

I wandered, always
searching, always
wondering -
why?

The buffet is up, time to let nature get ready for the Seasons ahead 🕊️ …,

The last of the Sunflowers are set on the drying rack and provide food for natures visitors.
