Early Being Late

Posted on April 19, 2014 by treshabarger

Up hours before the dawn
Cinderella chores finished ere dew forms on the lawn
Getting an early start is great
What I don’t understand
Is how I’m already behind by eight

Sunrise

What?! Sunrise already?

Let’s Ride

Some clichés are true
Like the road less taken
The smaller roads are not out of the way
They are the way
Let’s ride

A Vulcan customized motorcycle

Just get on and go

A country road

Discover what is just over the rise

The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away. ~ Pablo Picasso

Shelter of an Angel’s Wing

An extreme juncture stalls time
Blurs our vision, tatters our breath
All that we knew, before, is in question

A single moment of relief
One breeze of possibility from
The shelter of an angel’s wing
Guides us past our stationary nightmare
As a bridge to the future

A small angel statue on top of a bird bath

Shelter of an angel’s wing

Out of Place

Residing in a ceramic pot
Glimpsing life through paned windows
Sleeping behind closed curtains
The orchid blooms out of place, defiantly

Iwanagara Apple Blossom orchid
