Just being quiet

Bounce...

St. Lawrence O'Toole Gym ~ Brewster, New York

Memories of a childhood long gone
A day in the park
After school in the musty old gym

Making up games
Nonsense rules
Hours of play until it got dark

The sound of the bounce
Traveled for miles
Summoning us outside to play

Striking a chord...

(Old Guidepost Building ~ Pawling, New York ~ March 2015)

The key to happiness...
Is appreciating the highs and lows.
Or is it...
Knowing you might fall flat.
Being okay with...
The rules not being black or white.
Finding your own rhythm...
Until you stumble upon harmony.

Decision maker...

(Task avoidance ~ Brewster ~ March 1, 2015)
Let chance decide...
Hard, soft, or cutting to win.
Let fate be the guide...
It's out of my hands...I'm all in.

Old School...

(Classroom ~ St. Lawrence O'Toole ~ Brewster, New York)

There's always one...who learns a little differently.

Illuminate...

Drew United Methodist Church ~ January 2013


High above the masses
Hovering over the congregation
Lighting the way for he who passes
Illuminating whispered meditation

Intangible power...

Organ Pipes ~ Drew United Methodist Church, Carmel, NY ~ January 2013




Surfaces a riot of sadness
Quells an angry soul
Evokes a flutter of joy
Directs a spirit to inner peace
Illuminates a journey

Seeing the forest for the trees...

Holiday 2012-13

A time before this
Tomorrow's past
Lights to guide
Yesterday's future
Expectations abound
Today's today
Embracing a space in time
