Leaves

We are but leaves.
Beautiful but none the less facing death.
We will fall, and turn to only a reflection of the past.
There are too many to see all of them,
We will only notice the familiar ones around us.
We turn to new leaves, hoping that they may prosper.
We can not help, hope is all we have to [...]
Speeding On

Life goes whizzing by,
I am afraid I can’t comply.
The road is seen,
but is it known?
I will find the end,
It is only a matter of when.

Oh the Days: Reminiscing

Oh the day when I would sit under a tree and close my eyes, not a care in the world.
Oh the days when I would run all day and not get tired.
Oh the days when the fish always bit, and there was always water to fish.
Oh the days when I would run through neighbors yards and [...]
Another Memorable Evening

Oh what a beautiful evening it was at Knob Knoster State Park. I am so glad I got myself up from my computer and decided to go for a little photo expedition. Not that it’s too hard, but with gas the way it is, I must weigh my choices. Photography won hands down.
I only had [...]

Where does the road lead to? I must know.
When the time comes, will I be ready to go?

Oh the beauty, oh the beauty of the evening sun.
I am in awe, I am truly awestruck.
I must stop, I must stop and absorb the beauty.
I gaze on, I gaze at the heavenly rays.
How could one drive by, drive by this amazing occurence.
Occurence? Yes, the clouds and the sun juxtaposed into one harmonious element.
I love [...]
Poetry in Motion

This evening I was fortunate enough to be able to spend an hour or so in the woods. Somedays thats all I need to make the day great. An hour in the woods.
I walked amongst thick underbrush, flowing fields, and grassy meadows. I would occasionaly sit down in no particular spot, and just watch. Nothing [...]
