Flower Power
Poetry and Photography
“The earth laughs in flowers” Ralph Waldo Emerson
Flower Power
My eyes fixated
Almost sated
Admiring the colours
And the odors
Of those precious things
Making my heart sing
Glad I saw you today
You really saved my day

Peekaboo, I see You
Poetry and Photography
“A day without sunshine is like, you know, night” Steve Martin
Peekaboo, I see You
Hey you, yellow dot
Up in the sky
Why are you trying to hide
Come on, shine through
And give us some hot
Give us the groove
I know you got
Plenty to share
So just dare
And let some warmth
Into our hearts
Before the storms
Show up for their parts

Dark Shadows
Photography and Poetry
“Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see a shadow” Helen Keller
Dark Shadows
The sky filled with darkness
The cast shadows seem harmless
The calm before the storm
Everything soon to transform
The rain and thunder soon to follow
The earth and skies swallowed
By nature’s display of power
No need to feel sour
Soon the sun will shine again
And the bad weather will be slain

Dark Side of the Moon
Photography and Poetry
“There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls” George Carlin
Dark Side of the Moon
If you are howling at the moon
You know it’s not twelve in the noon
Maybe doing a little dance
Around the garden in the nude prance
Paying homage to the big white ball in the sky
Whether down on the ground or up high
Some of us are more night people than others
If you think someone it bothers
Just tell them never mind, be kind
Let out a big smile
Tell them no tall tails
And if all else fails
Moon them!

Camera Lucida Photo Challenge: The Respite
Camera Lucida Photo Challenge
Week Three: This week’s theme: The Park Bench
“A throne is only a bench covered with velvet” Napoleon Bonaparte
The Respite
Don’t be afraid
Please, sit down
I may look a little dreary
But it’s nice here in the shade
Surely you must be weary
From your stroll around town
I may not be the perfect sight
But before you scoff
Just take a load off
I promise not to bite

Fire in the Sky
Photography and Poetry: The Clinic /Photo Rehab
“A cloudless plain blue sky is like a flowerless garden” Terri Guillemet
Fire in the Sky
When the clock struck seven
High up in the heavens
The white, blue and yellow
Happily mixed together
Looking up at the skies
The vision burning my eyes
Painted in the colour red
Like the Almighty had bled
The horizon in full flame
Watching the complete frame
The sky was on fire

Ode to My Family, Photography and Poetry
Photography and Poetry
“Remember, as far as everyone knows, we are a nice, normal family!”
Ode to My Family
Can’t live with them
Can’t live with them
That is really all that can be said
Rather than whining, I wrote this ode instead
I would like to put them in a box
And take them out when ever needed
But there is a warning to be headed
They really are quite crazy
Maybe a little hazy
And cunning like the fox
The may not be my kind of crazy
But they are still family
Even though scattered all over
Like a five leaf clover
I still have the luxury
Maybe even compulsory
To keep in touch with them
Thank Goodness for such gems
As Instagram and Facebook
Now we are all hooked
So without resistance
Lets enjoy the distance
No just kidding
I love you guys!

The Oracle of Delphi
Photography and Poetry
“Heed these words, You who wish to probe the depths of nature: If you do not find within yourself that which you seek, neither will you find it outside. In you is hidden the treasure of treasures. Know Thyself and you will know the Universe and the Gods”
~ Delphi Oracle
The Oracle of Delphi
If you have come to seek
The words of wisdom
Or maybe just a peak
Through the prism
Place your request
To the priestess
The Oracle
Of Delphoi
