The slow onset
of Autumn
reflected
in the veins

Not so much
a collapse
More a gradual
descent

Kicking leaves

Do the trees know
that their golden decay
is source for great joy

Craneway Pavillion in Richmond, California. This is part of the historic Ford Motor Assembly Plant. The design concept was to boost productivity by bringing daylight inside.

​Look through the many mirrors
to find things, made new.
The glow may have always been,
light that shines within a frame.
Harmony in reflection.

The paint on the wall screams,
I am.
The pixels on the screen reply,
yes!

It is a glorious conversation to be in.

My fervent hope:

For you (yes, you) to find joy
in this moment, of seeing
with a deep breath,
knowing something true

And whatever is ailing,
the parts that complain
the ache, the pains, the cries
of your body and soul
all receive deep relief
in love, and in peace

Mandala created from a single photograph taken near Stinson Beach, California. Multiple layers were hand-blended to create paintbrush-like textures out of waves, rocks, and sand.

Well, we know where we're goin'
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowin'
But we can't say what we've seen

We’re on a road to nowhere

The Road and the River.

Take me back
country road
float me down
the river of time
where we meet
deep in the valley
I will know you forever
covered in soft snow
the memory's fine

Old Meets New

For a time,
there were two

Lines at angles
and the sun sets

Imagine your new
connections in light

The driftwood of ideas
collect in the mind
to form a structure
Lines connect at angles,
thoughts coalesce
in clusters

Let them
flow
Be playful
Open to possibility
with faith
Whatever the outcome,
you are free

Or, in the new global climate, maybe a few weeks before winter solstice.

Digital collage of Iris flower with poetry. Drip by drip On this day I see myself in shifted light, reaching for a new way of being. Aligned and attuned to the luminous energy behind the things which seem so solid, I have permission to create my own magic from this prism of light. Releasing denial of the truth. I am free.
