Road Travelled

The road travelled
Was filled with gravel
As life slowly unraveled
Exposed, to unwanted battles
Sometimes, treated like cattle
Our cages slowly rattled
Until reaching, the promised castle
On this long road, travelled

Elixir of Life — Musings from a Tangled Mind

Okay, so coffee is the magical infusion that keeps most of us employed and out of jail. But somehow, on Friday, it just has an extra touch of ethereal goodness.

Ice and Coffee

Chilled, in a tall glass
The liquid, not made to last
Pour it down, really fast

This dark icy mass

Made, to this drink supreme

Thankful Thursday – Butterflies and Caterpillars — Momdeavor

Last year in my garden, I planted butterfly weed (Asclepias tuberosa), a type of milkweed, namely to help create a habitat for Monarch butterflies and other pollinators.

Sitting, in the shadow
No worry, of tomorrow
Just enjoying, what this day throws

A Seat

A Seat

A seat in the shadows

Even the one seat
In the setting of concrete
Is quite fine

Fascinating

Fascinating

An out of focus photograph
Reminiscent, of a calligraph

Stare at it, for a while
What ever as you want it to file
It will still make you smile

Nature’s prize
For a
Brand new life
