Carpe Diem #1140 arriving at the right moment
quiet moment
along the embankment
song of a wood thrush
Category: road to Santiago De Compostela
Road to Santiago -Hosptality
a cup of tea
shared on a cold day
inspiring friendship
companion planting
growth and productivity
enhanced
everyone benefits
with a little hospitality
Road to Santiago – the Bridge
a steady hand
across the great divide
soothing souls
sky bridge
linking the great expanse
above the trees
Road to Santiago-That Moment
Carpe Diem #1135 that moment …
.
you walk away
fading in blood red sunset
mist of tears
Road to Santiago -Beyond Control
Road to Santiago -Walking the Road
Carpe Diem #1133 Walking the Road
sun drenched day
walking the road together
gathering strength
Road to Santiago – intuition
drops from the maple
splashing in the birdbath
soothing melody
~~~
last raindrops slip
from elm tree to birdbath
forming ripples
Road to Santiago – Friendship
whispers in the wind
bringing the unexpected
together
~~~
fall replanting
I share the divisions
with my neighbor
Imagine the Road to Santiago
Carpe Diem #1128 Imagine the Road to Santiago
light spills from the sky
flooding the moss covered hills
on road to Santiago
welcoming this wearing pilgrim
inspiring strength
Road to Satiago -Penitence
Once when i was five I sat on the back porch for over an hour fascinated with a daddy-long-legged spider (harvestman) I watched it crawl over my hand and arm until one of the legs came off. Then I examined the leg and noticed that it still kicked for awhile. Fascinated I pulled the legs off one by one, watching until it was still and then pulling off another. I did not think of the cruelty until just the body remained in my hand.
legless harvestman
each segment still jerking
in my dreams
Throughout my life this scene comes back to remind me of the need to be kind to all and careful of our actions or else we could easily and carelessly become murders of more than just spiders
once spoken
words cannot be recalled
despite penitence
