(Re)Incarnations






(Re)Incarnations



It's movement in the corner of my eye,
wind catching a tree in early morning 
darkness;  watching leaves rustle in 
a pre-storm gale outside the window 
in silence.  Recollection is it's reminder

that our origins, real and perceived, 
garnish all paths we consider with
each footstep.  Past, present, and future
are simultaneous siblings of incarnations
we create with breadth and reason.

Dances In The Sky



Poetry, music, and art sometimes 
come together at sunset.  What 
rhyme, melody or palet do you 
see and hear when you stop to
listen? 



























All of these photos were taken this afternoon, 
August 3, 2015 at Durand Eastman Park on 
Lake Ontario, Rochester, NY.  It was amazing
to watch colors change so dramatically in such
a short space of time.
