Heartache

And in that split second lost footing slipping down, down out of control no stopping the momentum where will it end? All that is known is now in reverse doubt rears its ugly head devotion devoid sadness prevails what to do? He used to be my best friend I was his best man my world is no longer a...

Ode to Edward Steichen's Photo, "The Pond--Moonlight"

When I turned the page and gasped in wonder I knew I would never be the same after feasting on pure mystery a pond in the dead of night barely visible if not for the slivers of moonlight sifting through tall trees soft granular ebony-green a silent sacred shrine captured in time by a lens an eye for...
