Driving the neighbourhood, streets are deserted, but the spirit of the residents shines through – art posted in windows, chalk drawings on sidewalks, and front porch art. The lengths people go to encourages me. The best of humankind is shining through. My challenge this week was contribution, and as always your contributions have warmed me. […]
I’ve lived the fog of distance –life’s highway a series of hillsdestination without promise Have learned that acceptance gains perspectivethat climates change, and hope sustainsand that in the stillness dreams renew. Now I travel quieter paths, appreciatespace, have surrendered to a slower pace –certain that this too will change. (For Lens-Artists Challenge: distance)
Goldeneyes scurry out of sight,marvellous but skittish visitors A Downy’s rat-a-tat captures my eyehis squeaky-toy pitch eliciting a smile The greatest capture of allthe elusive Kingfisher, caught mid trill (For Cee’s Black & White Photo challenge: birds)
Longer shadows and longer days. Soon the bench won’t be so lonely!
