Stretching her old limbs
High into the evening sky
The majesty of nature
Old juniper tree silhouetted in the evening sky at sunset. Orange-yellow horizon

Integrity fading
Losing justice and empathy
Country in crisis

(There is hope when we rekindle the light of compassion within us)

Vision of truth
Curtain of capitulation
Who will stand up
Window Arch glowing in the setting sun, with shadow across it of another formation

Painting the fields vibrant red
A wild, free soul

A single lantern
Honoring your life
How much I still miss you
Candelit luminary sitting in the grass in front of a pond with many floating luminaries. A few leaf bare trees and one story storage buildings in the background. Night time.

Relaxing by the stream
Slowing my breath
Feeling at peace
A mountain stream cascading over rocks, flanked by trees/bushes with yellow fall foliage

Night falls silently
Owls find their voice
Full moon rises
Full moon in a cloudy sky. Blurred tree branches in foreground

Sometimes pain must come
The new can only emerge
Through the damage

What if the night sky
Was filled with love hearts 💕
Instead of stars.... ✨

Meteor showers ☄️
Would sprinkle us with love ❤️
And the world would be at peace ✌️

In my kingdom
A waterfall gives
Thunderous applause
Rainforest with greenery including umbrella trees and ferns. A waterfall can be seen through the foliage

Enduring rain
And snow and drought
Carving character into my soul
Dramatic rocky canyon with snow capped mountains in the background

What is more perfect
Than nature's brush strokes
Sunset masterpiece
Sunset over a river, with peach colored clouds reflected into the water. A Great Blue Heron hunting.

Apart from her beauty
The flower appreciates
Her companionship

Bluesky Art Show's theme today is Autumn 🍁...

Autumn leaves
Metamorphosis of the heart
The color of goodbye

Breathing in slowly
Blowing the fog and cobwebs
Out of my heart
Autumn tree without foliage. Fog partly obscures distant mountains

So desolate...
Yet breathtakingly beautiful
Desert paradox
Desert rock formations glowing reddish with the setting sun. Moon between the rock formations. Distant mountain.

Heaven is pausing
To breathe in the sunset
On a faraway beach
Sunset over the ocean with lines of small waves. Golden clouds.
