Sea of change
Creates an opening
For a new beginning
In response to Patrick Jennings Pic and a Word Challenge #252: Opening
The meandering pattern
of rivers and veins
branches and horizons repeating
the grace of symmetry
found in nature
where function
overrules perfection
Fractured fractals
in balanced harmony
sing the universal code of
mathematical probability
bringing imperfect beauty
to life
In response to Patrick Jennings Pic and a Word Challenge #251: Mathematics
For certain memories
time stands still
and for a moment
the pain is searingly fresh
The loss makes you realize
what matters most
An aching reminder
of what it means
to truly love
In response to Patrick Jennings Pic and a Word Challenge #242: Time
In the soft early hours of the whippoorwill
The gleam of Earth’s temporary guest
Winds through our solar system
Its furtive tail rising above the tree tops
Hazy at first but growing more luminous by the minute
A race against the very sun that gives it measure
Your awe inspiring journey to places only imagined
Now the making of a magical morning for this earthling
And as you fade into the dayspring I bid farewell
-See you again in 6800 years
Ball of dust and ice
Hurtling through space and time
Another comet tale
