Good morning, everyone.


August starts to shade a bit towards shade,
Upon the cusp of full tide and retreat.
Gifts of grace accumulate through time
Underneath the sweat of the sublime,
Substance that no silence can defeat.
Though evenings earlier begin to fade.

The Traveler

Soft soggy foggy morning draped in dew’s blanket
a mind so at ease all is near easy to forget
Lazy lavender lilac scents hang in mists there
I awake to a dawning filled without a single care

Timeless times to fill a mind, a heart in peace
as ages echo in the distance until they cease
Waiting for something though not sure what or why
hanging around till then under a cerulean sky

Just traveling, always traveling through and by
and marking the time in the ledger of the mind wry
each page a day in the life of the Traveler grown old
and maybe one day to tell the story if I grow so bold

Lovely graphic and poem, Ms. Feather
We had a 10 minute rain storm last night..It made the morning
cooler but still heading for triple digits.
Hope your Monday is going well.
