Wild Blue Yonder


~Today's
(sunrise)
colors;
7:00 A.M.

Wild blue
yonder
stripy hues;
violet infused...
and
peach-pink
'surround sound'
for a delicate
yellow
orb
rising.

Ravaged


Here is
(another)
photo
from my journey
yesterday
with the dog
into the woods;
the aftermath
here seen
of a harsh
and brutal
winter ice storm;
2009.
I look forward
~sincerely~
to post
*before and after*
photos
when the lush
green
foliage of
spring
and then
summer
transform the forest floor.

Today,
I must admit,
and I can't help
but
wonder~
(can) do (?) people's lives
parallel this event?
I have been
thinking about
a women
(and others I know)
who describes
a childhood
that was
ravaged.
Is there a natural process
(and rightfully so a
super-natural one...)
that renews the forest floor
(of people's lives?)
For me,
I must believe that it is so.

Turning Back


Lakhi knows...
what's best!

"Turn back!"
are her
sentiments
about the
logging
path we
frequented
last year on
most of
our walks.

It is now
impassable
due to fallen
tree limbs :(
that mainly
occurred on
a single day;
the now infamous
Christmas day

ice storm of 2009.
We awoke to
crackling popping
noises echoing
through the woods.

Branches and trees
(even young strong ones)
snapped off from
the early morning,
through the day and
into the night.
The snow has now
thoroughly thawed

better allowing us to
venture out and
see first hand
the state of the forest.
