snowy field
the vastness
of a blank page

Here is a landscape nature photo I took of a snowy field in the Shenandoah Valley. The field's white triangle of hill meets a wedge of snow-covered trees. A white sky above reflects the snow below. The smoothness of the top and bottom of this image is contrasted by the inky texture of trees severing the scene in half. As an artist and writer, I see paper everywhere. Negative space makes me want to recreate moments and fill in the blank. Being drawn in by this wintery expanse inspired my latest haiku: snowy field the vastness of a blank page

When does hope occur?
When all is better, all fixed?

No - hope occurs when
we have been at our wits' end
and yet we refuse to quit

Tant qu’l’amour inond’ra mes matins
Tant qu’mon corps frémira sous tes mains
Peu m’importent les problèmes
Mon amour, puisque tu m’aimes 💗

Layers of frozen waves on Lake Michigan. They appear periwinkle blue with the sun having just set. The sky appears a yellow and orange ombré.

28.12.2022 - a visit to Kaipara Coast Plant Centre and Sculpture Garden. Along the long and winding path through the gardens, several "life-sized" games were set up for people of all ages to play. Under the hot Summer sun, a chess game seems to have ended before it even began. On the right, some of the slate gray wooden pieces are topsy-turvy and fallen onto their sides. To the left, the saffron-coloured wooden pieces of the opposing side stand superior and tall, smug in their assured victory. On each end of the playing "board" are two long wooden benches. The surrounding area is full of native grasses and trees. Il est temps de passer à autre chose, et que le prochain combattant tente sa chance...

aged in earned yearning
threads once woven tight
now translucent through winter sun
lightened by each wash cycle
mechanical agitation and age
frayed cuffs biting reminder
in rejoinder of tomorrow
a favourite sweater's sorrow

i dream of sleep

i’m up
yet down
each bluesday muddies waters
middle of the night
left to my own devices
spinning in lost spaces
wrong from right
inside this empty shell
out-minded
looking in
with shuttered eyes
time’s rolling backwards
always then
now sleep
no now
in time I might

Once, words did alight like Ibis Upon the sand dunes of senses Oases blooming under their touch Gone now, turned to stone Like the faces of the Pharoes The Jackal and the Rat Now make their nest In my sacred chambers I have seen a vision of that ghost And heard its mad cackle

Before you, I was #withering
My soil wrought inert
My hydration lacking
I was dying alone
But you danced into my life
And invited me to join you
Without hesitation, I followed
And you plucked me up
Put me in a beautiful vase
And watered me with your life

Sorry Wild Walk #writers

I was absolutely knackered last night and fell asleep without posting the prompt. So here it is, a little late.

#Wither

Use the image/word to inspire your writing, then post with #WildWalkPrompt

#WildWalkPrompt #raindrops

I am in the dark, eyes closed
The music loud enough to feel
I am dancing my feet unmoving
Eyes closed
I walk down my memories
There are many
Some surprise me
I forgot where I had put them
And in these spacious hallways
I find them
In umbrella stands
Umbrellas of raindrops
