And intrigue meet?

Riddles of Nature

Riddles of Nature

Riddles of nature captivate me.  One that has been with me forever is sand.  The breaking down of mountains, the creation of shores, beaches, and the action of the ocean.   


I remember when I was in my thirties walking along the beach explaining my awe at the connectivity of life to a fellow roamer. The process of building up mountains and islands popping out above the oceans. The reverse process of erosion to sand.  Standing on the beach as the waves washed away the sand with the tide, I let my toes act as a sieve, filtering the larger pebbles from the grains.

As days go by

As days go by

As days go by

Old becomes new again

Memory lane mixes

With new faces


What we were

Becomes what we are

We continue


As days go by

A Spoonful of Sugar

A Spoonful of Sugar

A Spoonful of Sugar

Sweet laughter

Brightens the day

Written in the non-existent rule book

Never take yourself too seriously

Joy is life's sugar

Storm of Transitions

Storm of Transitions

Storm of Transitions

Just before..

Water laden clouds

Anticipation..

Crackling air

Balance gone

Black clouds


Confusion reigns

Sky clears

Wind dies to a breeze

You wonder about worry

Now gone

Untangle the debris

Arrive

~Abbe

Before the Scene is Set

Before the Scene is Set

Before the Scene is Set

The mind visualizes

PUlls pieces from

Experience

Taste, touch, smell


The look ignites

The senses

The heart savors meaning

A bowl of comfort

As a Traveler

As a Traveler

As a traveler, many people ask me what is my favorite country to visit?  I don’t know how to answer as each country and place enters my heart differently. I seek out the unique and the mundane, which sometimes is the same. 


The trick to thoroughly enjoying oneself, is to accept what is and not make comparisons to others or expectations.


Traditionally in Fiji, a stranger must receive a welcoming ceremony in order to enter the tribal villages.

What Awaits

What Awaits

What Awaits

Adventure lies

Within the covers

Of the unknown.

A blanket of possibilities

A casual conversation

A twist in the road

A hand reaching out

The unknown uncovers

An adventure
