~Tao
Between being and non-being
barely there
these sails of water, ice, air -
Indifferent drifters, wandering
high on freedom
of the homeless
Restlessly swithering
like ghosts, slithering through substance
in puffs and wisps
Lending an enchanting or ominous air
luminous or casting shadows,
ambivalent filters of reality
Bequeathing wreaths, or
modesty veils to great natural beauties
like mountain peaks
Sometimes simply hanging there
airborne abstract art
in open air
Suspended animation
continually contorting:
great sky whales, now, horse drawn carriages
unpinpointable thought forms,
punctuating the endless sentence of the sky.
~from Clouds by Yahia Lababidi
I also owe a running debt of gratitude to my partner Kelly, who will bring the car to a screeching halt, whenever, wherever, I yell, "STOP!"
Every good shot I get is because of you.
Thank you Jo Haberman for the "Spottie!"
