Passages...
Yesterday was sweet...tomorrow unknown, but I'll still take my chances...

infinity
looking into then
fluid motion leaves a trail
of wondering and partially
developed scenes repeated
variegated glass stained by
hands that grasp fleetingly
at decisions never made
sometimes
like a glass domed ceiling
in the night the images that pass shadows
and recede
almost to the vanishing point
into the past turn from formalism into impressionism
reseed again like fallow crops
and then rattle off to become like cave paintings
stretching our imaginations as to why they were there
all this from a gentle stroke of memory
a touch of the button a few keys giving name a life
a word a picture how entirely mysterious
these connections are my dear
and how infinite the winding road there
and then the question
why do we all walk these passages
together
sometimes

Some might suggest the path of least resistance, or the path not taken, but then isn’t life a dance whose steps we make up along the way …sometimes we trip over our own feet, sometimes we stumble along in the dark, but we all learn the steps sooner or later!
I for one say go for it and don’t look back!

When I first saw this image I nearly fell off my chair after nearly loosing my balance and sending Jenny my cat who is sat on my Wacom tablett into unknown space.
So I feel this image is about balance in ones daily lifes and going in the right direction ( without GPS).............or am dreaming again.

Mum always told me I was sideways and this is a lot like one of my "flying dreams".

I often see the world like that...dont think it has anything to do with the empty 40 at my side.

But this IS a pretty pic, even halfway upside down...........I did'nt loose my balance but made Holger wonder what I was doing with my head turned halfway down :-)))
Have a straight sunday my Dear and take all the chances that come along !

Sylvia...Sometimes (60 months ago | reply)
Joseph, oh but she's fluttering about even as you speak! ;-)
Mick...so you dream of flying? I never have, but it sounds
wonderful! I would love to see things as a bird does...
Ohhhh dear, Ten...stay away from that bike!!! :-)
Mary...LOL...I've been known to look at things like that crooked-necked-swan too...I just wanted something different!!! ;-)
Hope it's a cool evening you are having, my wonderful friend...!
You always make me smile...
Nadine...so you don't think it's too wacko?
