I carved devotion
from the language of frost—
breath turning to ice
before it could warm.
I worshiped your absence
like snow worships silence—
cold and unyielding
even after the dawn.

The dark waves crash against the shore, Relentless motion, evermore. The distant hills, strong, silent, vast, A steadfast watch that's built to last. And through the storm, the sun's gold gleam, A constant hope, a waking dream.
Goodnight my #bluesky friends! Sleep well and dream sweetly! ✨️💙🌊🌞✌️💙✨️

In the sun-drenched memory of spring's soft kiss, My heart returns to moments I truly miss. The vibrant pink of petals, a sweet, warm hue, Against the green leaves, where sunlight filters through. Each bloom a quiet whisper, a gentle sigh, Beneath a long-gone, brilliant, azure sky. Though seasons turn and summer's light may fade, The spring's bright promise in my mind has stayed.
Here's one for the #ColorADay theme #PinkMon! Reminiscing about springtime colors!✨️💖🌸💖✨️
"Pretty pink petals
Hang carefree in warm air
Stirring a sense of happiness
Simply by being there"

The morning breaks, a gentle sigh, And gilded moss begins to glow, Beneath the vast and silent sky, Where ancient, emerald rivers flow. A magic calm the hour bestows, On sun-drenched spangles, soft and deep, A peaceful hush the forest knows, While the wide world is still asleep.
Good morning my #bluesky friends! Happy #MossyMonday! 💚🌿🌲🌞🌲🌿💚
"Nature speaks in sounds, and echoes in colours. Sounds embedded through the centuries. And colours, radiant and evergreen"

#morning #eastcoastkin #photography #nature #islandlife #beauty #ALTpoetry #westcoast
The sun dips low, a final, golden gasp, Above the mountains in the twilight's hold. Within this moment, our brief world we clasp, A quiet story silently untold. Vast heavens watch our hurried, fragile trace, Dark clouds are shadows of a passing day. We are but dust within this endless space, A flicker in the light that fades away.
Goodnight my #bluesky friends! I leave you with another #ImageAndVerse! 🧡💛🥰💛🧡
"You are the universe, split in view,
becoming whole by seeing through.
Self and other, tide and moon,
pull and release in quiet tune"
- Erin Marie Miller
#sunset #eastcoastkin #photography #nature #beauty #ALTpoetry
The horizon blurs in muted grays, A solitary soul in misty haze. Beached timber lies in still decay, As silent minutes drift away. The sea exhales a hushed, deep sigh, Beneath the vast and empty sky. Where heavy boughs obscure the sun, A quiet, lonely life is spun.

#misty #eastcoastkin #photography #nature #islandlife #beauty #ALTpoetry #westcoast #dream #walk
Through emerald carpets, sun-drenched pillars rise, Whispering secrets to the boundless skies. A tapestry of shadow, light, and grace, Where timeless nature finds its hallowed place. In this deep quietude, let spirits mend, Where every verdant path begins and ends. A silent strength in light's persistent push, Resilience blossoms in each sun-dappled bush
Good morning my #bluesky friends! Happy #ImageAndVerse day! ✨️💛💚🌲💚💛✨️
"The misty dawn unveils
her starry robes
and becomes the day
inside the day,
the Sun inside my home"

The sky above in twilight's soft embrace, Where gold and grey in gentle union meet. The darkling sea reflects the quiet grace, Of weary light, a moment bittersweet. Upon the shore, where ocean starts to sleep, Stand silent trees against the fading flame. The ancient rhythms that the waters keep, Remind the soul that nothing is the same.
Goodnight my #bluesky friends! I leave you with one more for the #blueskyartshow theme #warmth! Sleep well everyone.💙✨️🦋🌞🌊✨️💙

In emerald shadows, soft and low, Where dappled, painted leaves now grow. The fawn lily's pattern, a forest art, A green and mossy, vibrant, beating heart. Life's hopeful color, fresh and bright, A testament to nature's might. From mossy beds to vibrant blade, The beauty of the green is flawlessly made.
Here's one for the #ColorADay theme #GreenSat! Some beautiful Fawn Lily leaves! 💚🍃💚🌿💚🌱💚

Warm light spills across the sleeping earth, Awakening the silent world to birth. Rising gold, the sky begins to turn, Majestic colors start to softly burn. Touching clouds with hues of rose and flame, Heralding the new day by its name.

#sunrise #eastcoastkin #photography #nature #islandlife #beauty #ALTpoetry #westcoast
Oceanside romance, a sunset love affair. Glowing with affection, an answer to my prayer. Symbiotic scenery, a sea of serenity, surrounded by solitude, but smiling soulfully. A calm cascade comes over me, a welcome warm embrace. Nature's presence gives me peace, its love, gifts me with grace.
Goodnight my #bluesky friends! Tapping out early tonight, I leave you with something for #ForestFriday & #Scape! ✨️💚🌲🫠✌️🌊💙✨️
"For whatever we lose (like a you or a me) it's always ourselves we find in the sea"
- E.E. Cummings
#sunset #eastcoastkin #photography #nature #islandlife #beauty #ALTpoetry
Blue sky daydreams, take me away. On this sunlit shore, I spread my wings. I want to fly among the clouds, soaring freely, never to come down. I close my eyes and feel the wind flow, I feel my feet lift and the world fall below. Weightless I drift, carried by the breeze, to places unknown, made of my dreams.

"You are not born
to stand near the seashore
you are here

Beauty, a spell that stills the hurried air, awakens thoughts, a quiet, sudden flare. A glimpse of the sun rising up through the trees, can fill you with hope and put you at ease. The gentle grace of a sunbeams warm touch, can calm your heart and fill it with love. Beauty serves more than one purpose, it goes much deeper than what's on the surface. It gives without taking, lifts without breaking and loves without breaking your heart.
Good morning my #bluesky friends! Happy #ForestFriday! 💚✨️🌲🥰🌲✨️💚
"If what a tree or a bush does is lost on you,
You are surely lost. Stand still.
The forest knows where you are.
You must let it find you"
- David Wagoner

There's spirits in the forest, they are rooted in the ground. Connected with each other, even after they fall down. In service of the greater good, protect community. Hold the weakest of us up, restore humanity. Remember those who gave their life, and lay now at our feet. Giving life back to the Earth, with grace and dignity.

The way the sun cuts through the trees, puts my aching heart at ease. The forest doesn't ask my name, our connection is on a deeper plane. We speak a language without words, communication between two worlds. We grow together every day, we just grow in different ways.
Good morning my #bluesky friends! Happy Wednesday✨️🌲🌞🌲✨️

Sing to me sweet melodies, sing me a lullaby. The coastline carries a chorus, as daylight says its goodbyes. Caressing the cliffside in candlelit colors, riding the rippled sea. Our star ventures on towards a new dawn, leaving a trail of dreams.
Goodnight my #bluesky friends! I leave you with one more for #RockinTuesday! ✨️🌊💙🦋🥰🫶✨️
One day, you shall have wings and fly in the horizons. One day you shall twinkle like that star yonder the sky.

Follow this path through the forest, sprinkled in sparkling sunlight. Adventure awaits around every corner, society is far from my sight. Choices to make lay ahead of me, choices I've made lay behind. Some made the journey much steeper, some weigh heavy on my mind. Still I must continue onward, one weighted step at a time. Hoping the next is the right one, smiling as I make the climb.
Here's one for the love of #Trees! ✨️💚🌲😍🌲💚✨️

On the edge of a tidepool, the morning sun sits. Nestled in its bed of stone, glowing in tangerine bliss. A stillness saturates the shoreline, a calming coastline confidence. The universe's beauty reflected, projecting powerful prominence.
Good mid-morning my #bluesky friends! I've had a hectic start to the day! Happy #RockinTuesday 💙🤟😎🪨🌊💙

Wave to me when you say goodbye, underneath the winter sky. I feel your kiss when I close my eyes, I smell your scent admist the salty brine. I hear your voice harmonize with the breeze, I see your face in the swirls of the sea. You are everything and everywhere, flooding my every sense. I never fear the grief of despair, standing in Mother Nature's presence.
Goodnight my #bluesky friends! Have a peaceful evening, much love✨️💙🌊🦋🫶✨️
"I never really understood the word ‘loneliness’. As far as I was concerned, I was in an orgy with the sky and the ocean, and with nature"
- Bjork
#sunset #eastcoastkin #photography #nature #islandlife #westcoast #ALTpoetry
Seek answers within the silent woods; They may not speak the truth you need, but in their shade, your thoughts are freed. Let them float up, up through the trees, tiptoeing treetops across the canopy. Then ground your thoughts, deep in the moss, and watch as they sprout into dreams. What the forest gives, is space for you to live, peacefully, in search of whatever you seek.
Here's one for my #MossyMonday crew! Where my Sphagnum Superstars at?! Hahaha💚🌿🌲🤭🌿💚
"We grow from the mossy ground,
Unsure if we are a new being
Or just a new extension of the whole
Regardless, we are each unique"
- Gideon, hellopoetry.com

Sky light, sky bright, morning sky of pure delight. I wish I may, I wish I might, find the strength to face this fight. The ocean grants determinations power, waves after wave, hour after hour. The shore says, stand your ground, no matter how you're battered. The sun shows how your light, will leave the darkness shattered. The nuanced knowledge of nature, elemental encouragement. Wisdom whispered on wave and wind, enlightenment environment.
Good morning my #bluesky friends! Happy Monday, may the week be kind!✨️🦋🌊💙🌞✨️
"Life will go on--all of us--crawling; stumbling, falling perhaps. But we will be the strong ones. Our hearts will shine brightly."
- Douglas Coupland
#sunrise #eastcoastkin #photography #nature #islandlife #ALTpoetry
They say a smooth sea doesn't make a skilled sailor, that adversity is our preeminent teacher. While typically I would tend to agree, I think there's a lot to learn while at peace. Calming our mind, body and soul, teaches us presence and taking control. Mind over matter, navigate the waves. Take life's lessons as they come, by storm or sunsets gaze.

Beautiful blooms on a cold winters eve, surrounded by color and dead brittle leaves. Lemon drop petals as bright as the sun, radiant beauty that won't be outdone. Winter flowers are born to be fighters, a fact that makes their colors seem brighter. Bold against the seasons grays, I see your worth and sing your praise!

Leaf glistens with golden hue,
Yet thou hast an inward glow
That doth all thy petals strew"

Tell yourself a story, one with a happy end. Tell yourself this story, every morning when you get out of bed. Set your eyes on a sunrise, let the light come in. Let the air fill your lungs, and tell that story again. Commune with the clouds, whisper to the waves. For the story you tell, may just save your day.
Good morning my #bluesky friends! Happy #Stunday, may you find some peaceful moments.💙✌️😊🌊🦋💙

In my dreams, I can walk on water. Surfing a dreamscape of kaleidoscope color. Alone on this sea of tranquility, searching for a sun kissed shore. To leave the waking world behind, a hidden place to explore. With the wind as my guide, I graciously glide, farther than ever before.

"May all those swells of pages, posts,
and messages you surf upon
transport your thoughts
and charge your art"
- Robert J. Tiess
#surfing #eastcoastkin #photography #nature #islandlife #waves #ALTpoetry
The amber wave of morning, swells in the eastern sky. A measure of fervent beauty, that i can't quantify. I stand and watch from the shadows, as the fog begins to lift. Soon the surf will reach my shore, and I will be cast adrift. Sink or swim, as this new day begins, will I remain intact? Nobody knows, but the waves still roll, so i brace for the next impact.
Good morning my #bluesky friends! Happy Saturday, may the day be kind to you✨️💛🌞🫶💛✨️
"You are a child of the universe,

The coastline carries a conversation, one between Ocean and Earth. An ancient and sacred language, spoken in sand and surf. Sunset shares its secrets, and whispers them through the clouds. They blush at the touch of the sunbeams, dressed in their golden shrouds.
Goodnight my #bluesky friends! I leave you with a sunset #Scape before bed. Much love!💙🦋🌊🌞🫂💙
"The journey of the sun

The soothing sounds of water, a memorable melody. Winding its way through the forest, to the arms of the open sea. The trees on its banks, whisper encouraging words. The rocks make sweet music, that rivals the birds. Soon this fresh water will dance with the sea. Its journey will end, with a new unity.
Here's another contribution to the #ForestFriday frenzy!💚🌲🌊🌲💚
