The seventh month–
Even the sixth does not seem,
Like a usual night.

wordless wednesday

Horsetooth Reservoir… f/8 127s 24m 100 ISO
my heart fades…
While watching
the long rains falling on this world
my heart, too, fades
with the unseen color
of the spring flowers.

Let us…
Let us seek the past,
be an age
that cherishes the old–
then our “today” one day
will be someone’s “long ago”

lens-artist photo challenge: wonder
in hazy night
stepping into water…
losing my way

Water in its many manifestations: clouds, fog, snow, dew-drops, rain, ice, rivers, oceans, waves, mist, falls, glaciers, sprinklers..fill we with wonder.
Submitted in response to lens-artist photo challenge: wonder…a moment, a feeling, a place, a person–which filled you with wonder.

thursday’s special: lost in detail
Even if it were not so,
Something unseen,
Suddenly
Starts me awake-struck by
The sound of a bell

Submitted in response to Lost in Translation’s photo challenge
a path
Simply with sorrow
And nothing
More in mind
Both left and right
Sleeves are soaked.
